He's got a shot in the way anyone who declares a candidacy and meets the legal requirements has a shot. If you're talking about odds of getting the nomination (let alone winning the general), then he's got basicly zero chance.

- MCRed 11y agoOver a year out, he only trails Clinton by a few points: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/general_election_paul_vs_clinton-3825.html http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/ge... Consider that Clinton has been on the national stage for 30+ years, while Rand has only been on it for months. That's way more than just "a shot", that's damn good.
- dublinben 11y agoIt doesn't matter how he polls against Clinton, if he has no chance of winning the Republican nomination. Gingrich, Santorum, and RuPaul were similarly "a few points" behind Obama in 2012, and they had just as little chance of ever becoming president.
