Read more, with video:In an interview with PoliticKING With Larry King on Thursday, the elder Paul spoke in the present tense about his son's presidential ambitions (emphasis added):
KING: Do you encourage your son to run for President?
PAUL: Not really, and I have mixed feelings about it because I know what is entailed and how much punishment he gets - it always annoys me he has to suffer some of the consequences because of something I said or did. But he shouldn't have to do that but that's the way system works. So yes I think it's great he's doing it. He has a good message and he understand free-market economics and I just think that its doing a world of good. But I also know the power and strength of the establishment and its a tough road to hoe I'll tell you that but I would never have discouraged him from doing it. Just like I didn't say "Rand I really want to see you go to med school and be a doctor" but I never discourage and was delighted when he did go to med school and become an opthamologist.
It's nitpicking, sure, but it's also telling—even Paul's father sees his son running as a foregone conclusion.
