Sons began following their fathers into politics long before the election of George W. Bush. As Rand Paul, Kentucky’s newly elected representative to the U.S. Senate, and son of Texas Congressman Ron Paul, readies for his move to Washington, he continues a long tradition of men whose fathers and grandfathers fueled their passion for public service at the highest levels of government.

First, I hope Rand continues the ideological purity of his father. Second, I hope he develops the political savvy has his father.

I hear a lot of "Rand is on Ron." However, then I think back to the video of Ron yelling at the kid if we should legislate that people are too fat. As fun as that is to watch, I don't see Ron doing that any more. He's come a long way. It's not fair to expect Rand to be that much like his father without giving him time to get there.

you're talking as if what Ron did was a bad thing. but that's one of my favorite Ron Paul moments.
