hahahaha....the Bush's don't have political "Pull"?! HAHAHAHAHAHA! You're fucking hilarious. C'mon man, stop. Next thing you're going to tell me, is that the Kennedy's don't have "pull", or the Rothschilds.....hahahahaha
We're talking about families with legacies that extend back to the founding of the country; often including roots in English Aristocracy and global finance: and what kind kind of shit are you on....!?
You know, people that that racist shitlord Jackson warned us about when he bought us back out of debt-slavery. Ur fucking funny, bro.

Well maybe you can compare Clinton to Kennedy (Kennedy had even more pull). But really what she was like is Nixon with a partner that was once a popular president.
In genreal -- families are powerful including political ones. I get what your saying. What I'm saying is that's not what it used to be in general -- evidenced by Bush's loss....not just loss but spectacular loss. His political life is over.
It really didn't happen that way for hillary though. What happened with Hillary was not that Trump pointed out she was a tool for the establishment and lost all credibility (like Jeb).
What happened with hillary is she lost. After all the inevitability horseshit 2 elections in a row (discluding obama's re-run). It just destroyed her reputation as a power player. She has some clout still...but mostly its fading fast.
Then all the stuff about DNC rigging against Bernie came out...then the stuff about pad piper strategy -- she actually directed the media companies she was in good with (most of them except fox) to cover trump and try to get trump to win the election because she thought she could win.
It just really sank home for anyone disappointed with the luke warm Dem establishment -- that it was all fixed planned and corrupted from the beginning. This isn't about compromising to appeal to more americans, this is about our politicans compromising with corporations so they could push out the politicians that are not corrupted by their influence.
In short, your kind of applying a general historical rule (powerful political families often win elections) to an election that's probably not lining up to be typical (2020).
This is the same mistake people that predicted Romneys win and Trumps loss had...things aren't business as usual in politics lately.
Regardless. The fact was Clinton WAS the DNC. She completly ran that organization in a way biden does not. There was much more democratic unity on the onset of 2016 then there will be in 2020 as well.
