For those who love to indulge themselves in blasting out at the legislators, making politics a family business, there is something soothing from the United States of America, the country, which people invariably like to associate with.

Not only associate but also one tries to imbibe the traits, which the most powerful country of the world claims to posses.

Though, there are no official records to put on the platter but if one goes by the words of historian Richard Baker as quoted by USA Today, “No official records are kept but the concentration of relatives is extraordinary”

Not only that, “Sometimes the children of public figures are kept in the shadows but now we are seeing this trend or pattern of all in the family,” adds Baker.

Among them there are four widows along with dozens of off springs, including the wife of former Senate majority leader and Senator Hillary Rodham wife of Bill Clinton, a former President and Governor.

Now, if that reads a little bit too much of a family affair in the political affairs of America lets have a small peep in the political arena of one of the biggest democracies of the globe, yes our very own India.
