Over 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.

It 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.

In any head-to-head poll, any Republican will poll within a few points of any Democrat.
