There have been Presidential in-laws who have worked for Presidents before Jared Kushner, son in-law of President Donald Trump.
William Gibbs McAdoo, son in-law of President Woodrow Wilson, served as Wilson’s Secretary of the Treasury for the first six years of Wilson’s Presidency, and was crucial in the economic buildup for World War I.
Sargent Shriver, brother in-law of President John F. Kennedy, served as the first head of the Peace Corps, and went on to serve as the head of the War on Poverty under Lyndon B. Johnson, and as Ambassador to France under Johnson and Richard Nixon.
Both were solid citizens who made major contributions, and I discuss this in my recent article on History News Network, out this week, and found on the right side of the blog.
Jared Kushner, by comparison is a spoiled rich kid, who has no special qualifications to be in charge of so many different responsibilities under his father in law. Now with the revelation of his contacts with the Russian Ambassador, including suggestions that they have contact outside of official channels, is making Kushner an albatross around Donald Trump’s neck. However it is clear that Kushner would not have become involved in such dealings without Trump’s support and knowledge, so it puts Trump under further suspicion and investigation.
So do not expect that Kushner will ever reach long term the significance of either McAdoo or Shriver, and in fact, will likely contribute to the downfall of Donald Trump.
Progressive Professor-Great Article-Great layout for a blog page have to use it on my website worthdiscoveringtruth. Fighting the war on poverty and Hunger. The War on Hunger, interesting subject-A definite requirement to run for office as a Democrat, and you can add other areas on a Resume to run as a “Progressive”. How would you list them in order in order to accomplish your agenda? What would be your agenda? What would you need to accomplish this using the Constitution of the Unites States? The last question and a very controversial one on both sides but especially Progressive Vs. Conservatives. I like the Bob Dylan song “You have to serve someone” on his album Slow Train Coming in 1979. Should not be a shock to you having a very good article and have done your research. You own a home and have a family, I suppose, how do you help your family build a foundation for the future? What do you use in measuring how the “Progressive’s Constitution” will continue as the Constitution established from 1787 and signed in 1789? It was a different time and a “New World” a New Direction this new direction helped the fight against many enemies foreign and domestic, Religious and Non-religious, Became one “Great Power” in overcoming evil, depending on how you define evil. You must research the great leaders of the past-what they based their convictions on and why they must have realized the importance for the future of this “New World.” Then measure it from 1787 to The above leaders ending with “Roosevelt” against your plan from 2001-today, for America’s vision towards the future. Using the facts from Roosevelt. Measuring150 years to only 18, not be an exact comparison and a different time of history, but gives you an idea towards the next 100 years with your agenda. Pick the best leaders you have-write your constitution and make it “The New America’s Vision” I will end with this-The greatest three changes in the first year of this President are these. It will change America and many are in opposition to it, WHY? 1. A new young conservative judge on the supreme court. 2. Tax reform, still need more money kept by the workers not government but a good start. 3. The most important-Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel. This is only the start. Suggestion before you write your constitution ask yourself why we have a Judah-Christian value system? I will read more of your articles-gives me a few great ideas on articles. Who designed your template for this site? Great Job!
