Did not know this about Rand Paul

QuoteQuote:
12. Rand Paul

The Tea party-backed ophthalmologist running for Kentucky’s Senate seat is a convinced libertarian who believes in minimal government. He fell into the media trap of stating that he might not have voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964 because private businesses should not be regulated by government. While this may have been true to his libertarian principles, it could have been catastrophic politically. Paul’s medical qualifications have been called into question by opponents, who revealed he is not certified by the American Board of Medical Specialties and is instead certified by a rival board that he helped create.

Paul is the son of Texas congressman and former presidential candidate Ron Paul and was named after the philosopher Ayn Rand. He will face Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway in the November elections; Paul is currently ahead in opinion polls.
