10. Honestly, I don't see the "name" issue as important
It's not the name that matters to me. It's what the person has done w/ their life.

I don't care that Hillary's last name is Clinton and her husband served as President. She has her very own record of accomplishment. She's never tried to ride her husband's name or coattails.

With Bush though, it's different. He is someone who isn't a very accomplished person. Every indication is that he's tried to advance himself based on his Daddy and his name. If he had his own record of accomplishment as a businessman, Governor of Texas, etc..I don't think his last name would be an issue. But he's made it one.
