Ron Paul, a former presidential candidate and longtime congressman, is mum on a potential presidential bid by his son, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky. But he does have a few opinions about his sons potential GOP rivals in 2016. <\/p>\n

The libertarian champion was referring to a pair of Floridians, former Gov. Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio, who are on the short list for a 2016 bid for the White House. <\/p>\n
