Sen. Rand Paul Appears on Fox's America's Newsroom with Martha MacCullum - May 9, 2014 - Video
Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, considered to be one of the Republican party's best hopes in the 2016 presidential campaign, urged party leaders meeting in Memphis on Friday not to dilute their core values -- and instead, to "be boldly for what we're for."
"I think we need a new GOP," he told the Republican National Committee at a luncheon at The Peabody, where the RNC is holding its spring meeting. "And the new GOP, it needs to be bigger, it needs to be bolder, it needs to be better."
Paul criticized Hillary Clinton, the former Secretary of State and a potential Democratic presidential candidate in 2016, for not providing defense to the consulate in Benghazi, Libya, where four Americans were killed in September 2012. "This is about decision making," Paul said.
Paul was one of two Republicans considered as potential presidential candidates to address the group this week. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio spoke to committee members in a private event at the Rendezvous on Thursday night.
In March, Paul won the straw poll of potential 2016 contenders at the Conservative Political Action Conference. Just this week, The New York Times wrote this about Paul: "For more than a year, Mr. Paul has been the most interesting man in Republican politics."
Paul didn't just make news from the dais, either. As the RNC debated rules changes in one Peabody ballroom, Paul told a New York Times reporter that the GOP should lay off its pursuit of voter ID laws. "It's offending people," Paul said. The reporter, Jeremy W. Peters, tweeted the comment, and by the time Paul's speech began some 90 minutes later, it had been retweeted almost 200 times.
Paul spent time Friday morning with the Coalition of African American Pastors in a separate meeting earlier in the day.

Sen. Rand Paul thinks the Republican Party should take some notes from Star Trek.
On Friday, the Kentucky senator invoked Star Trek character Captain Kirk in arguing for a bigger and more inclusive Republican Party.
Sort of like what Captain Kirk used to say, we need to boldly go where no Republicans have gone before. So we need to go to Harlem, East L.A., Berkeley, maybe even Hollywood, though that may be dangerous, Paul said on Fox News, making a crack about Hollywood as a liberal hub.
(QUIZ: Do you know Rand Paul?)
Kirk, the character made famous by William Shatner, vowed to take his crew where no man has gone before.
Paul was speaking from a Republican National Committee event in Memphis, where he and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), among others, are speaking this week. Both Paul and Rubio are considered to be potential presidential candidates in 2016.
Im at the Republican National Convention in Memphis, and Ill tell them that the party needs to be bigger, bolder and better, more inclusive, Paul said on Fox.
He added that the GOP cannot target the same constituencies as it did in 2008 and 2012, when the party lost presidential elections to President Barack Obama. But he said that if Republicans can reach out to a more diverse group of people, were going to be the dominant party again.
(Also on POLITICO: Rick Santorum has no use for Rand Paul)
He explicitly mentioned the need to target the African-American community, a group that has overwhelmingly favored Democrats in recent years. Paul said that, when it comes to helping black Americans, weve tried 50 years of the Democrats passing out money and it hasnt worked.
