Paul Admits "Mistakes" Following Plagiarism Claims 
---------------------------------------------------


 
Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky has announced a "restructuring" of
his office practices after being accused of plagiarism. Over the past
week, Paul has been found to have used other people's language without
attribution in a speech, an article, in congressional testimony, and in
a section of his book. On Tuesday, Paul acknowledged his office has made
"mistakes" and said he will ensure his public statements are properly
footnoted from now on.
