Nixon goes to China.

It's Christopher Nixon Cox, the grandson of Richard Nixon.
The 34-year-old investment banker was joined by his Andrea Castimatidis - the daughter of supermarket billionaire and New York City mayoral hopeful John Castimatidis - who stood out in a plunging red dress to match her husband's tie.
"His Andrea Castimatidis"? How many other guys get an Andrea Castimatidis? Are the other Andrea Castimatidises that the nongrandsons-of-Presidents get also daughters of billionaires who want to be mayors? And do they all look that weird?

Do all these couples stand hand-almost-in-hand and pose with the image of Chairman Mao between their 2 heads?

ADDED: So, the missing word in the linked Daily Mail article is "wife." The strange looking pair is actually a marital unit. Here's the NYT "vows" article on the occasion of their wedding. 
Throughout the summer of 2008, Ms. Catsimatidis and Mr. Cox kept seeing each other at political events. “We’d have these great conversations,” Mr. Cox said. “We think about a lot of things the same way.”

The more she saw him, the more she, too, became impressed. And as she did, their 11-year age difference seemed to melt away. But she did not always see him as a potential boyfriend. “I was always drawn to him,” she said. “But it didn’t cross my mind until a whole bunch of my friends said, ‘You should date him.’ ”...

“We knew from the beginning we wanted to marry each other,” Mr. Cox said. “We believe in love at first sight.”
And love at first girlfriends saying "You should date him." But why did they say that? She wasn't even 18 when she met him. She didn't think of him as a potential boyfriend. And her strict father had never permitted her to date. Now billionaire dad is running for mayor and the couple is in China posing around the same monuments once posed around by Pat and Dick Nixon.
