He's 44 years old & still fiddling around with coke? Hard to explain this as a youthful indescretion. Go away Hunter & hide your face in shame.

that would certainly come his way, I'm not a fan of political dynasties. Your dad or your husband or wife or uncle was vice president or a senator or whatever? So what? Same goes for the Clintons and the Kennedys. I don't vote for people because of their relatives or their last names.

The right mate leads them to the path of the straight-and-narrow, and/or they find God.
