Should it be added that on top of being born in the USA and over the age of 35 and all that other stuff that no one can become president if their family has ever held office? Of course it would be more detailed, like 2 generations prior or any family closer in relation than a cousin, spouse, aunt, uncle, siblings, parents and grandparents.
Would this help prevent us from having Bushes and Clintons in the white house forever?

I wonder if anyone proposed that in 1825 when John Quincy Adams was elected?
This is nothing new.

There is nothing wrong with multiple people from the same family holding office. The thing is the American people are electing them, they should office. I do not support the Amendment that states the president can not hold more than 2 terms in office. If the people want that person as their president they should be their president.
