They are just figureheads...although their families are very powerful players on the political scene, of course.

I think the dynasty thing is very creepy, and it's getting creepier all the time. Politics in the USA is becoming just like politics in some godforsaken Third World country run by a consortium of rich aristocrats. They go through periodic motions of outer democracy, they play power games against one another in the inner ruling clique, but it's actually just an autocracy with revolving heads of state to keep the public thinking something might change for the better "this time".

Yeah, a lot like Pakistan or Mexico or Argentina.

Just think, Jeb Bush could get to be president too, some way down the line.

I don't really see how having Hillary and Bill in the White House with Hillary as official prez is going to be much different than it was having Hillary and Bill in the White House with Bill as official prez. It will look different, for sure, but it won't be different. Just a rerun.

Hillary will not seduce interns. Bill....well, he might need some careful watching.

And I laugh at the scaremongering 3 AM ad! It isn't up to just one human being to decide what to do in cases like that. They have to deal with the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the State Department, the CIA, the allies overseas, NATO, and the many powers behind the scenes. I don't think it's like in the Hollywood movies when Harrison Ford gets to be president and HE decides when that call comes in. Nope, not much like that at all.

The president is a front man/woman. The face they stick in front of the big machine.
