The Republican presidential candidate is burdened by a family dynasty. When it comes to economics and foreign policy, its legacy is intensely controversial in the Republican Party. Now he’s trying to present himself as his own man.

Paul has grown up in the cradle of libertarianism, the son of a father who has been seen as the savior of the movement for decades, both as a Congressman and presidential candidate. To distinguish himself from his father, Paul has been modulating his positions in the past few months, prompting his interviewers to query him about whether or not he is a flip-flopper.
