Nor is this blogger convinced that Americans want a continuation of the Bush-Clinton "dynasty." As I've noted before on numerous occasions, this November will mark the 20th anniversary of George H.W. Bush's election to the presidency. We haven't had a president with a surname other than Bush or Clinton since.
It was not the intent of America's founders for this country to be governed by a dynasty, after having thrown off the yoke of the dynastic rule of the British monarch. After 20 years, this blogger firmly believes that the time is overdue for the Bush-Clinton "dynasty" to come to an end.
For the good of the Democratic Party -- and for the good of America -- it's time for someone other than a Clinton to be the party's presidential standard-bearer. It's time for someone other than a Bush or a Clinton to be handed the keys to the Oval Office.
