(5,082 posts)She is nepotistic and that's the real point. Of course she doesn't have as much power as Bush. But this article is a disservice to us all. She CANNOT use nepotism or cronyism now as a campaign advantage which would normally hurt Bush. If we select Clinton then we have neutered that talking point and sacrificed any advantage it would give us. We need another candidate. The worst part of this self-congratulatory article is that it IGNORES the FACT that she is close intimate friends with the Bush family and is considered an honorary family member. It is probably due to the fact that the Clintons protected and covered up for the Bushes when they took office in 93 allowing a clear path for GW Bush to become president in 2000. It could never have happened without their help and I blame them for Bush members return to political power. Time to face reality...the Clintons essentially work for the Bushes.
