10 Other Political Scions and Royal Families to Look to Now
Now that the Obamas are on their way out of the White House, Americans will be deprived of many important values and qualities, but one (more frivolous) trait that will be missing is the glamour the first family brought to Washington, not just Michelle but her two daughters, too. (And lest we forget the missed opportunity to welcome Hillary Clinton’s handsome nephew, Tyler, into the White House.) Here, 10 other political scions and royal families to turn to for inspiration instead. Justin Trudeau of Canada is an obvious choice (his father was also prime minister). But there’s also Luka Pahor, the son of Borut Pahor, president of Slovenia, who posts skate photos on his public Instagram account.
