Sen. Rand Paul's biggest applause during his Wednesday evening speech at the Republican National Convention came from a line about protecting civil liberties... ‘To thrive we must believe in ourselves again, and we must never - never - trade our liberty for any fleeting promise of security,’ the Kentucky senator said to thunderous applause. Much like his father, the Texas congressman and former presidential candidate, Rand Paul has been a vocal advocate against security measures that compromise civil rights and freedoms.” -- Huffington Post
