Gov. Jeb Bush really, really isn't interested in succeeding his brother in the White House

Great news. We don't need a monarchy in this country.

You have to admit it's kind of perverse when people are averse to electing the best candidate we have (our best conservative governor) simply because of his family. A meritocracy-democracy would clamor for Jeb despite his family. Now we have a situation where anyone born in America can become president -- unless his family members have been president.

The Kennedy political dynasty is enough.

That's exactly what O'Reilly said, to dynastic, First the Father, then the Son, but no one would vote for this Son for that very reason.
