Moments are awfully momentary.
The other time a president's son ran for president, he finished second, in a field of four, to a Tennessean. But because the leader, Andrew Jackson, did not get an electoral vote majority, the 1824 election was settled in the House, when John Quincy Adams struck a deal with the fourth-place candidate, Henry Clay, who threw his support to Adams. Adams in turn made Clay secretary of state, then considered a steppingstone to the presidency. The inevitably untidy and bitter judicial ending of this election may taint Bush's presidency. However, sober people understand that any ending favoring Al Gore would have tainted his presidency.
