America’s First Political Dynasty

That's right - it's the Adams dynasty.

I know this won't stop language pedants from posting scolding semantics lessons, but the rest of you should know that it's okay to consider the possibility of a Kennedy dynasty.

2. The Adams dynasty didn't last for 36 consecutive years.

If Hillary wins, there will have been a Bush or Clinton in the administration every year since 1981, with a potential to run through 2017. Almost four decades.

This is unprecedented.

3. Good heavens, you're persistent. Glad to see you use "possibility."

"What if" is one thing, the certainty of your Kennedy post was another.

What about the Harrisons? William Henry and Benjamin, of course. If only William Henry had bundled up and stayed dry. . . hmmmmmm.

6. All of them, sure

People rail against the Bush "dynasty" or the Bush/Clinton "dynasty" but they've no historical depth. It's not like it never happened before.

Geez.

7. I blame WH's long-winded inaugural speech

You'd think they'd have taken one of those giant vaudeville-style hooks and dragged him off the podium after the first hour.

10. He was accustomed to the filibuster, no doubt

Perhaps he thought he ought to filibuster the nation.

Bummer for him.

The Adamses did it first.
