First of all, we don’t have a ‘Royal Family’ like England does, no matter how many RATS and GOPe’s think we do...

And doesn’t the Governor of that State decides who will be chosen for that position???

Nope. House members can only be chosen by the people, either in a general or special election. Most (not all) Senate vacancies can be chosen by the Governor.

The younger, Conyers, 27, would be a first-time political candidate. But has already been connected to an ethics issue, according to the Detroit Free Press. In 2010, the congressman had to reimburse the Treasury Department $5,682 for his son’s misuse of a taxpayer-funded Cadillac Escalade, the paper reports.

Conyers’s wife, Monica Conyers, was in 2010 sentenced to more than three years in prison for taking cash, as a Detroit council member, to support a Houston company’s sludge contract with the city.
