Need a break, or just need a Constitution-themed, well, anything?
Head to store.randpaul.com.
As Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul officially joined the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination on Tuesday, he launched his online store, too, and the brash copy — "[Get] the next leader of the free world on a stick" — and hilarious items caught the Internet's attention.
Here are eight of the weirdest and most wonderful items from the store.
1. A Constitution-themed phone case: "It's protected our freedoms for more than 200 years, now it's ready to protect your phone."
2. An NSA webcam blocker: "Safe and practical."
3. Rand on a Stick: "Huh?"
4. A 3-foot-tall birthday card: "A gift they will never forget."
5. Headphone skins: "Look good listening to your jams with Rand Paul."
6. An eye chart: "Dr. Rand Paul."
7. A $1,000 copy of the Constitution: Autographed.
8. A cozy blanket: "The next best thing to him being there."
Connecting to Paul's store proved tricky on Tuesday, as the site was likely overloaded from heavy traffic.

So it seems there is a lot of demand — at least to see what the 2016 candidate is selling.
