I despise people that inherited positions just because they picked the right famlies to be born into.
Do you despise leaders such as JFK, Bobby and FDR? Amazing people are born into all social-economic backgrounds. I won't hold it against someone because they're 2nd generation wealth or politically well positioned.

The presidency is the chief executive job in the world. I want someone that can run a corporation and treat it's investors (the public) fairly and honestly.

That is one of the main problems. If the country was a business, it would have gone bankrupt so long ago. We have all these Harvard / Yale grads that are supposed to be the very intelligent but cannot balance a budget. So I dont think coming from money really helps, because they never had to worry about money, just spend spend spend and it's like there is a never ending supply. They never had to work for it.
