And actually, as much as I think JFK was a leftist who has been elevated to Divine Status, I think that restriction is wrong. In my opinion the president has the right to appoint anyone to the cabinet he wants, as long as he can get them past the senate.

Were Obama’s appointees good just by virtue of the fact that they weren’t relatives?

The fact is, if you don’t like Trump’s job in office, vote for Lieawatha or whoever in 2020. Until then, let him do his freaking job.
