Political nepotism

[Stevenj214]

I was reading an article that suggested Jeb Bush could be a future presidential nominee.

I haven't thought about it in too much depth but something doesn't sit right with me that potentially a father and both of his sons can hold the most powerful position in the USA.

What are the odds that 3 men from the same family are considered the 'best man for the job' in a country with a population of over 300million?

Lots of actors kids follow their parents, would imagine it's part up bringing and part connections.

The most sensible post of the thread IMO.

However actors do not hold positions as the 'leader of the free world'.

The other way to look at it is, I suppose, that it doesn't matter who is actually President. They are simply a figurehead for their party and all the really important decisions are simply fed through them.
