Sen. Tim Johnson (D-SD) recently succeeded in getting his son appointed US Attorney for South Dakota.

In his first bid at political office, Biden ran for Attorney General of Delaware in 2006. Biden won the election by approximately five percentage points.
A article of a local CA politician’s son was in the paper. John Garamendi,ex state insurance commissioner, his son got out of Berkeley and immediately was placed in high paying board and employment positions. No experience whatsoever.
There is a reason in business many companies do not allow nepotism. Only in politics can you line up friends and family members who will protect everything you do.
I never heard the latest of Senator Johnson’s health, but it must be good enough for people in SD.
