Politics - A Legacy Weekend

Both must overcome the damage created by family members, who were former presidents. NBC labeled them the "Dynasty Candidates". Each have their own strategies - while hoping for the best with a reasonable amount of confidence. They begin by introducing the real Hillary and the real Jeb. Do we know them? Yes. I can't remember the last time I liked a presidential candidate, nor voted. My take is that politicians are figure-heads who know little and run nothing. I'm not much of a conspiracy theorist ... just allow history to speak for itself.
