Now that Rand is gone I'll probably vote for Bernie in the primaries because frick Hillary.
Does not compute. Libertarian to a socialist? Wanna know how I know you're a moron? Couldn't be more opposite. Rand Paul himself would tell you you're a moron.

Rand's dad would disagree with you. LINK
Bernie Sanders' stances on corporate cronyism, the war on drugs, federal reserve transparency, and unnecessary foreign adventurism are not unlike Rand Paul's. However, his focus on certain aspects of "social justice" and his propensity toward higher taxes and additional government-provided services (healthcare, education, etc.) are certainly in opposition to Rand.
Point being, not everything is a dichotomy, dude. People treating politics like some kind of football game between Rs and Ds where one side is always right, every time, about everything, is why we are where we are right now. The real morons are those who assume libertarian-leaning Paul supporters should just blindly hop on board the Republican train without contemplating the relative merits of all the other candidates' ideological stances.
Likely Gary Johnson voter, by the way.

You apparently only read the first sentence of what I wrote genius. For one Bernie is actually socially libertarian and I agree with him on many of those things. Outside of that I don't agree a lot with what he says but Hillary on the other hand I don't seem to agree with her on literally anything and whether you like it or not one of them is going to win the democrat nomination. I might as well vote for the one I like more.
Also you might want to go back to Politics 101 as the primaries are just for the nomination, I said in the general election (the one where you actually vote for who will be president) I'm voting for either Gary Johnson (most likely Libertarian candidate) or if the republicans can produce someone I actually like (which looking at the field of republican candidates will most likely not happen).
