Jim Bunning, the current Senator from Kentucky has decided not to run for reelection in 2010, leaving an open field in both the Democratic and Republican primaries.

Rand Paul, the son of Congressman Ron Paul has decided to run for Senator Bunning’s seat.

Rand Paul is not just a son of a Congressman following in his father’s footsteps. He has been very involved in Kentucky politics for the last 15 years. He founded a group called Kentucky Taxpayers United in 1994 and has run the organization ever since. Under Rand Paul’s leadership, this organization has become very influential in influencing State legislators to push for lower taxes. Rand Paul is a strong supporter of Austrian Economics as well.

Rand Paul is also a successful doctor, and understands the health care issue very, very well:

Dr. Paul’s supporters are holding a moneybomb for his campaign tomorrow. The recent moneybomb for Peter Schiff was successful–he raised hundreds of thousands of dollars in a single day. Tomorrow, Dr. Paul’s supporters are hoping that his moneybomb can raise over $1 million–becoming the first Senate campaign to raise $1 million in a single day. We can make this happen, but only if those who favor free markets are willing to invest a little money. A small donation–even $10 will help Dr. Paul win what is sure to be an expensive primary battle.

For more information–or to donate, please visit either the official site of the moneybomb, or Dr. Paul’s official campaign page. The moneybomb page has plenty more YouTube clips of Dr. Paul speaking.

Americanly Yours,
