Republican presidential candidate Rand Paul says that the Clintons "think they're above the law" and that there is "a grand hypocrisy" to Hillary Clinton's acceptance of donations from countries with poor records on women's rights.

"I think the thing is about the Clintons is that there's a certain sense that they think they're above the law," he said in an interview with NBC's Chuck Todd on "Meet the Press."

Paul argued that Clinton is wrong to say that Republicans are waging a "war on women" even as the Clinton Foundation receives funding from Saudi Arabia.

"Hillary Clinton has taken money from countries that rape victims are publicly lashed," he said, describing a recent case of a woman in Saudi Arabia who was whipped after being gang raped by seven men. "We should be boycotting, voluntarily boycotting a country, not buying stuff from a country that does that to women," he said.

Paul stopped short of saying that the United States should officially dissolve alliances with Saudi Arabia but suggested that individuals should consider a "voluntary boycott" of the country akin to America's view towards South Africa during apartheid.

"I would expect Hillary Clinton if she believes in women's rights, she should be calling for a boycott of Saudi Arabia. Instead, she's accepting tens of millions of dollars," he said. "And I think it looks unseemly. And there's going to be some explaining she's going to have to come up with."

Paul's campaign also announced a new anti-Clinton ad that will air on cable television in key primary states. The ad calls Clinton's run "a path to the past" and derides her as "the worst of the Washington machine."

AUSTIN - Well, this could make for an awkward conversation at Thanksgiving dinner.

Former Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul on Saturday dismissed as a "joke" the demand by U.S. senators of his party that they must approve a potential agreement over the Middle East country's nuclear capabilities.

"I strongly disagree with the motivation of that statement made by so many members of Congress, especially in the Senate," Paul said at a conference on liberty at the University of Texas at Austin, presumably referring to an open letter senators sent to Iranian officials describing any deal not approved by them as informal.

Paul, a longtime Lake Jackson congressman who left office in 2013, said Congress should have a role in reviewing agreements, but he questioned whether the senators really cared about the constitutional questions or just wanted to undermine the deal.

"They're out to stop peace," he said. "They're terrified that peace might break out."

Paul's son, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, who announced his own presidential bid earlier this week, signed the letter and cosponsored a bill to require the Obama administration to seek congressional review.

The senator said during an interview at the South by Southwest festival here last month that he did so because he believes in the separation of powers.

The younger Paul for months has been moderating some public positions on foreign policy in the hopes of making himself a more palatable option for mainstream conservatives who will play a big role in determining the GOP nominee.

Much has been made of the relationship between the Pauls ahead of the election, with the conventional wisdom being the candidate needs to maintain his dad's base while also reaching out to more mainstream voters.

Eric Dondero, a former Ron Paul aide, told the Houston Chronicle earlier this week that the Pauls have always disagreed somewhat about foreign policy, with the son being slightly more willing to consider intervening in foreign countries.

Ron Paul spent much of his presidential campaigns serving as the crank on the debate stage. But here in Iowa in 2012, he finished a strong third, the beneficiary of an outpouring of libertarian love.

Now his son Rand Paul has embarked on his own run for the White House, and he hopes to be embraced by his fathers passionate followers. But to avoid his fathers fate at the end, less a serious contender than an asterisk Rand Paul must pull off a far harder task, convincingnot only his fathers backers but voters of other stripes that they should side with him.

Already in Iowa, where Paul campaigned Friday, the difficulties are obvious. Drew Ivers, who ran the fathers Iowa campaigns in 2008 and 2012, is undecided about whether he will support the son. He cites policy changes Rand Paul has made in his effort to broaden his appeal.

His "voting record is good, but his rhetoric over the last two years as he ramped up for his announcement has deviated from his voting record," Ivers said. "He is sending some mixed signals."

In other states and in other presidential election years, solidifying libertarian support would not be a priority. But with an enormous potential field of GOP candidates and the outsized voice of Iowans, who hold the first presidential nominating contest in the nation, consolidating their support is critical for a self-described "libertarian-ish" candidate like Paul. Even a small amount of defection could harm his chances, given the tiny number of Iowans who actually participate in the states caucuses.

In 2012, about 121,000 GOP voters caucused here, with Ron Paul claiming 21% of the vote, 3% less than the winner, former Sen. Rick Santorum. Pauls ardent backers then engineered a hostile takeover of the state Republican Party, leading the lions share of Iowas delegates to cast ballots for the Texas congressman at the Republican National Convention.

Political observers and even operatives who are supporting other candidates widely expect Rand Paul to hold on to many of these activists.

The Rev. Glen Bandel, a part-time pastor at Nora Springs Christian Church, is among those who endorsed the elder Paul and plan to caucus for the son.

"Hes No. 1 on my list," said Bandel, 86. "Theyre not the same. Theyre not identical. Theyre two separate individuals but theyve both got some pretty good ideas." Rand Paul, he said, "looks pretty conservative."

The candidate says retaining such backers is key to his prospects.
