"When will U.S. voters break free of dynasty voting...Rockefeller, Bush, Kennedy, etc."

Gore, Daly, Adams, Harrison...

It has been going on for a long time. Sometimes the child of a great leader is also a leader. Because they have the contacts it makes it easier for them to rise to the top.

Thx Allan. Is Patrick one of Robert Kennedy's children?

No. Patrick and Edward Jr. are both Ted Kennedy's offspring.

As someone noted, he also had a daughter, who's name also escapes me.
