Or the GOP's...
Don't forget Jeb, shoot that is a even more literal definition since it would be the third.
Usually takes more then 2 for a dynasty, but agree with the notion of a Clinton dynasty with hill dog.

It's for that reason I'm almost hoping Trump gets elected without an official party nomination. It would set a new precedence that others could follow. It also might carry the potential to destroy the stranglehold our two party system has.
I will be joining my Canadian friends as a resident, just 20 minutes away, if Trump is elected.
Martin O’Malley Rails at Democrats for Debate Schedule ‘Rigged’ to Aid Hillary Clinton
MINNEAPOLIS – Martin O’Malley had one clear chance to make waves within the Democratic National Committee, and he seized it, delivering a fiery speech Friday that condemned his party’s leadership for what he called a process “rigged” to help Hillary Rodham Clinton — namely, curtailing the number of presidential primary debates.
Accusing party leaders of trying to keep Democratic ideas hidden as the Republican presidential candidates spew “racist hate” from their debate lecterns, Mr. O’Malley, the former Maryland governor and mayor of Baltimore, questioned the decision to hold “four debates and four debates only” before the first four states finish voting.
“This is totally unprecedented in our party’s history,” Mr. O’Malley said. “This sort of rigged process has never been attempted before. Whose decree is it exactly? Where did it come from? To what end? For what purpose? What national or party interest does this decree serve? How does this help us tell the story of the last eight years of Democratic progress?”
Democratic challengers launch attacks against Clinton, party leadership
MINNEAPOLIS — Hillary Rodham Clinton sought to cement her standing as the rightful leader of the Democratic Party here Friday, but two of her challengers launched a fierce counterattack against her and a party establishment they see as trying to hand her the 2016 presidential nomination.
What began as a routine forum of candidate speeches evolved into a surprisingly dramatic day at the Democratic National Committee’s summer meeting, as Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley issued thinly veiled attacks on Clinton and the party leadership.
Speaking from the dais, with DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz sitting a few feet away, O’Malley blasted the party’s limited number of sanctioned debates as a process “rigged” in favor of the front-runner.

Honestly, I can't understand WHY Hillary is ahead of the other Dems...especially Sanders.
In fact, it almost seems like some kind of manufactured illusion that she has so much support among Dems.
NONE of my Democrat friends or family want Hillary (they all want Sanders)...and they all believe she is corrupt and believe she's a liar.
On this thread alone, I put out several calls for Hillary supporters to comment...and, all day, not a single one stepped up.
It really appears that Hillary Clinton has the liberal media and leadership of the DNC completely under her control, while Democrat voters are not being fairly represented.
Is Hillary's popularity among Democrats REAL?...It sure doesn't seem to be.
'Neutral' Wasserman Schultz calls Hillary Clinton a 'special leader and a special woman'
With Hillary Clinton widely expected to announce her candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination over the weekend, U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz emphasized her neutrality on Friday – and went on to praise Clinton and the history making nature of her run.
The Weston congresswoman was a prominent Clinton supporter in 2008, when she lost the presidential nomination to Barack Obama. Since 2011, she has been Obama’s handpicked chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee.
“Secretary Clinton, I think is arguably one of the most qualified people – assuming she announces her candidacy – who have ever run for president. I was proud to support her in 2008. Of course as DNC chair, I will neutrally manage our primary nomination contest, assuming we have one,” Wasserman Schultz said in a brief interview Friday after the dedication of a new South Florida regional FBI headquarters in Miramar.
“Secretary Clinton’s candidacy is another step of progress for women and for my daughters. As the mom of two little girls, a 15-year old and an 11-year old, and my mom who told me in America a little girl can get elected president, and can be anything she wants to be, this is something that I’m very proud to be able to point to when she announces her candidacy – but I say that neutrally, because I will be neutral during the primary. But Secretary Clinton’s a very special, a special leader and a special woman,” Wasserman Schultz said.

Someone on the Democrat side should really look into the background of the relationship between DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Shultz and Hillary Clinton.
It really looks like the DNC has the nomination process 'rigged' towards HRC...no matter what.

I do wonder if this is also a novel excuse by Hillary to avoid any democrat candidate debates where embarrassing questions and challenges to her might surely arise:
'I don't have to debate---I already won.'
