Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) hasn’t come outright and said he will run for president. But if he did, he just let non-violent drug offenders know that change might be coming, if he was elected.

“They want — the young people want politicians who don’t want to put them in jail for 20 years for a non-violent drug possession charge,” Paul said (among other issues like a “less aggressive foreign policy”).
