Rand Paul’s presidential website has a typo in just about the worst place you could imagine

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky).

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) started his presidential campaign on Tuesday.

Unfortunately for him, in the rush to launch the campaign, he had a little typo on his website.

We all make typos on the internet. It happens!

Unfortunately for Paul, the typo was in just about the worst spot you could imagine …

The site debuted on Wednesday and the typo came on top of its “education” section. In a video on that page, Paul declared “education is the great equalizer.” The title of that clip mistakenly referred to “eductation.”

“Rand Paul Opposes A One-Size-Fits-All Approach to Eductation,” it said

Obviously, as writers we often make typos ourselves, and are sympathetic to Paul’s plight. However, in the context of a presidential campaign where the site presumably spent a good deal of time in development, this could prove to be a memorable slipup. 

Paul isn’t the first presidential candidate to commit a spelling gaffe. In 2012, former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney promised “A Better Amercia,” on an iPhone app for his campaign. That typo went viral and was widely mocked.
