Why is it, modern political dynasties are mostly Democrats ?

With the exception of the Bush family, almost all modern day political dynasties are uber-liberal Democrats. And note the Bush's are more representative of main stream politic than the left of center represented by the Daly's, Kennedy's, Clinton's, and to lesser extent Pelosi's, Landrieu's and others.

Why do liberals love to be lorded over by these families....for decades upon decades ? Originally Posted by Whirlaway

STanza Stark demonstrates what I wrote to Timmie yesterday. No republican will ever make the cut for people like him. So right off the bat he limits his choices by half. Instead of choosing your candidates by party why not open yourself up to things like character and experience. I have not always voted for the republican, I try to vote for the best candidate. Unfortunatelty, the democratic party puts forth all these candidates who do the party proud while forgetting about the people. There have been times that I hold my nose for the lesser of two evils and sometimes I have a real choice. It will be a great day when people like Stanza no longer run the parties.

And, might I add, the minor dynasty of Ron and Rand Paul.

I say "minor" because Representatives are a dime a dozen, like county executives and mayors. A House rep is generally NOT a stepping stone to a presidential campaign. I can't remember the last time a House representative made that leap.

Most political dynasties come out of governors, Senators, and Presidents.

Nonetheless, they ARE related to it is still a dynasty of sorts.

But if Rand runs against Hillary, then it is dynasty (minor) vs. dynasty (major). And Rand becomes the easy pick.

I think the line to Putin would be from Rice (in Russian, of course) ...

You better make a deal now before I win a second term ...

..... when I WILL BE flexible!!

Rather than "wait until after the elections so I can be more flexible."

What do you have against people of color thinking for themselves, ZanyBore? Do they all have to fall in line with you, or else be considered a sellout? That's kind of how Hitler controlled Germany.

This may surprise you. I have slightly more white friends than I do black and I have a ton of black friends. Many are republican while most are liberal. It takes a rare person to look beyond politics most people like you obviously can 't and I'm sure you can't make the same claims as I do and be honest about it. You guys are the ones that get extremely butthurt and emotional over political differences I know how to put them aside when needed. Not everyone can do that.

Bobby Jindal was born in Louisiana to Amar and Raj Jindal, immigrants from Punjab, India. Jindal was one of 50 students nationwide admitted to the Program in Liberal Medical Education (PLME) at Brown University, guaranteeing him a place in medical school. Jindal completed majors in biology and public policy. He graduated in 1991 at the age of 20, with honors in both majors. Jindal was named to the 1992 USA Today All-USA Academic Team. He applied to and was accepted by both Harvard Medical School and Yale Law School, but studied at New College, Oxford, as a Rhodes Scholar.
