Third , It's like saying you won't go to a bakery if they have too many generations working there. Guess what, families have careers and they teach their children and pass their skills down. just like a Baker, or a Carpenter or any other profession does. It's not shocking that family members of politicians also get involved in politics. Just like children of actors might become an actor, or children of a Pawn shop owner might get into the Pawn shop business. You are making it sound sinister when it's not at all. It's totally natural.

Genetic relations has nothing to do with this. Based on your logic adopted children aren't members of a family because they're not genetically related. Family isn't just genetics and every culture has its own definitions for it, and in American culture spouses = family, especially women since patriarchy reigns supreme and she is viewed as a Clinton while Bill isn't viewed as a Rodham.
And also the presidency of the US is a bit different from a family bakery. I was going to expand on that, but there's no need. If you are seriously equating the two then you'd probably be best off just staying out of political discussions altogether.
