The "trouble qualifying" you've heard about is for the main stage debates (the debate sponsors decide who qualifies). AFAIK, Rand Paul is on all the currently settled GOP primary election ballots (or caucuses where applicable). He's actually likely to do quite well in Iowa (maybe top 3).

Are there any candidates (where "candidate" is defined as someone who has actually gotten on the ballot in enough states for it to be possible to win, not a write-in) who would not support the compromise of encryption? I'm not talking about just from the major parties; I'm talking about literally any candidate that managed to get on the ballot.
In the GOP, Sen. Rand Paul. In the Libertarian Party, whoever gets the nomination (probably Gov. Gary Johnson). In the Democratic Party, nobody.

At least someone finally got around to mentioning ESR, who is not only a libertarian, but an anarcho-libertarian.
