Justin Trudeau set to enter federal politics: report
He will be a future prime minister if he runs and wants too, I have no doubt. I look forward to it.
I don't doubt you but again I ask.. What's he done?
Do you want to live in a country were the man in charge learns on the job?
If the PM is nothing but a figurehead, I'd suggest a babe from the gallery.
well he is young, i don't expect he would become liberal leader or PM for another 10-20 years. He has been a teacher and much schooling behind him. Obviously political experience will come after he runs and becomes an MP, just like anyone else. He has a headstart over many though, being raised in a political family and the power of his name.
While that name sells for some, for others it's the political kiss of death. This should be interesting.

I remember meeting the boys they wouldn't remember they were so young but they were polite and said hello while I talked with Dad for about three or four minutes . They just stared at me the whole time . Somebody came running up behind yelling something about jobs so he quickly said goodbye and left with his boys anyway I guess that would be a campfire story so I'll just say that the chances of making a success out of him are probably better than anyone .
this is true but these people are mostly people that don't vote Liberal anyway.

I remember another family that had a no name son run for office and got in. These two families have much in common. Both belong to a political party that ruined their perspective countries for generations and costs lifes. That leaders name? George W. Bush.

Rattle away....Like water on a ducks back....It just rolls off 
Jason Cherniak over at Cherniak on Politics says:
$1:
1) As I have written before, I have nothing against Justin Trudeau personally but a lot against him using his last name to get ahead within the Liberal Party. If Justin wants to run for the Liberals, I think he should find a seat that we do not hold and show that he has the ability to do some heavy lifting. Others who have given much more time and energy to the Party deserve a safe seat in which to run.
If he does become PM I hope he's not like his father, spending like a drunken sailor.
"Political family"
"Dysfunctional family" is more suited
shall I tell you why ?

Like all other Liberal Leaders, he'll do as he damn well likes and screw you if you don't like it.
