But Paul’s opposition of Clinton is about more than policy. It’s personal.
Paul says that in August 2011, during Clinton’s time as secretary of state, he spent 27 days in Libya negotiating with the Gaddafi regime to accede to America’s demands regarding the Libyan civil war. He describes Gaddafi, the notorious dictator who was eventually killed in October of that year, as a “changed man” during the last decade of his life.
“[Gaddafi] was evil. He was a dictator. Ruthless. But he was a born-again believer, you could say. He did whatever America wanted. Finally, during the war, he agreed to every condition Hillary Clinton asked for through her friend, General Wesley Clark, who was on the phone with me at least two or three dozen times when I was in Libya,” Paul recalls.
