Ron Paul's son, U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, addressed the Republican National Convention Wednesday, making the case for Mitt Romney and American liberty.
Paul continued the theme the convention, "we built it," by focusing most of his speech on the president's now-infamous "you didn't build that" remarks.
"Anyone who so fundamentally misunderstands American greatness is uniquely unqualified to lead this great nation," the younger Paul said.
"The engine of capitalism - the individual - is mightier than any collective."
Ron Paul, who never endorsed Romney, refused an invitation to speak at the RNC because, in part, he would have to clear his speech with Romney's campaign.
Rand Paul has endorsed Romney, though he still has some work to do to convince his father's passionate backers that he's ready to step into those shoes.
Rand, one of many GOP speakers preceding Paul Ryan's RNC speech last night, mentioned Romney only once during his speech (above), at the end.
"To lead us forward, away from the looming debt crisis, it will take someone who believes in America's greatness, who believes in and can articulate the American dream."
"Someone who has created jobs, someone who understands and appreciates what makes America great, someone who will lead our party and our nation forward."
"I believe that someone is our nominee: Governor Mitt Romney."
