Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s “Your World” with Neil Cavuto former Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) discussed the IRS targeting his organization when Cavuto asked, “Well, i don’t want to be cynical Congressman, do you think any of this might have a thing or two to do with your son possibly running for president? “

Paul responded “Well, I guess – I guess almost anything is possible in government, because, you know, he may get a couple of benefits by him being my son, but he also has some disadvantages too. Ao they might, they might try to do that, which would be obviously very unfair. But I give the American people the benefit of the doubt. I think, and I’m hoping, that they’re smart to see through this.”
