4. Its the whole dynasty thing.. Oligarchy in American politics that keeps certain
people ruling and other's left out in the dark.. and the perception that ideas become old and lobbyist/ special interests become more entrenched. Caroline Kennedy does have that last name and is from the clan.. but she's done a lot of good. Who knows what will transpire? It's the worry over class rule and not having a monarchy.. I mean look at King George.. Had he not been a Bush, would anyone at all voted for the asshat? He was so incompetant.. but that info was sealed and the media helped to prop up the boyking.. and daddy silenced the critics.. that's the problem with power being amassed with the few and transceding many generations.
