With Sen. Rand Paul set to announce his candidacy for presidency Tuesday, he hasn’t clinched at least one Kentucky Congressman’s vote.

Ed Whitfield says it would be exciting to see a presidential nominee from Kentucky but he pulls up short of endorsement.

“He’s articulate, he’s smart, and he’s inclusive,” Whitfield said. “So I feel very comfortable in his running.  I guess I know more about Rand than I do anybody, but I think I owe it to myself and others to listen to a more complete debate on the issues.”

Whitfield says he looks forward to the presidential nomination process this summer.
