Clinton family Wedding


31st of July saw the wedding of Chelsea Clinton who is Methodist and Marc Mezvinsky who is Jewish. Chelsea is the daughter of former U.S President Bill Clinton and current U.S. Secretary of State and former U.S Senator from New York Hillary Rodham Clinton. Marc Mezvinsky is the son of a former congressman and a convicted fraudster Edward "Ed" Mezvinsky, who was convicted of several dozen charges of fraud in 2001. He was released from federal prison in 2008. He remains on federal probation and still owes almost $9.4 million in restitution to his victims. His mother is Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky, who is a journalist and served one term as a Democratic member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Pennsylvania.
Wonder how this will effect US politics in the Middle East, having a Jewish family in such high places? After all, US politics tend to be a family affair.
