How the illegitimate grandson of Ronald Reagan's best friend rose from revelations of his mother's affair with a U.S. Senator to begin a political career of his own

ZitatAdam Laxalt entered the national political scene in February 2013 when his mother shockingly revealed that he was the product of an affair she had with a U.S. Senator - a secret she had kept for nearly 35 years.
Just one year later, he is shaking up Nevada politics - casting aside his label as a 'love child' and capitalizing on his famous name and even more famous political connections.
He may be the illegitimate son of former New Mexico Senator Pete Domenici, but he's also the grandson of Paul Laxalt - a former U.S. Senator for Nevada and a man who was so close to President Ronald Reagan he was called the 'First Friend.'
