    John Dingell served in the House from 1955 to 2015, which is an insane length of time. His wife then succeeded him. One family having exclusive control of a Congressional district for well over half a century is kind of banana republic-ish

        I should've added that his father, John Dingell Sr., served for 22 years before him. So we are approaching a full century of exclusive-Dingell control of a particular swath of political territory in Michigan.

        Maybe it’s because the people in his district love them and they do a good job. God you’re absolute fucking trash.

        Michael. Unfortunately, this sort of nepotism in Congress has become so routine that it hardly raises an eyebrow. Out here in So Cal we have Duncan Hunter Jr. (still held his seat after embarrassing revelations) inherited from daddy (Duncan Hunter Sr.). One of numerous examples.

        Wes. Fortunately there are voters - they cast votes for candidates, not families. The first rule in politics is that the voter is always right. Nobody is forced to vote for any primary or general election candidate - they do it willingly.

        Gee. It's too bad someone held guns to the heads of all those people and made them vote for them.

        Ok, show us all how it's done. Run for office. Serve a neighborhood for a few years. Try to get re-elected. Put all those smarts to the test - away from the ivory tower.
