Since Senator Menendes is a Democratic from New Jersey, this situation
presents a serious example in the question of "nature versus nurture".

I'm fairly certain that given that he, a Democrat, and Chris Christie, a Republican,
are both from NJ, it must be that nurture is the dominant operating force.

Sen. Bob Menendez Denies Wrongdoing as Feds Consider Corruption Charges
ABC News - ARLETTE SAENZ and AARON KATERSKY - Mar 6, 2015
Sen. Bob Menendez, D-New Jersey, is speaking out about the possibility
of facing corruption charges that may come from an investigation into whether he received gifts
from a Florida eye doctor in exchange for promoting the doctor’s business.

A federal official familiar with the case told ABC News a criminal charge is a “good possibility,”
but a decision may be weeks away. Grand juries in Miami, Florida and in Newark, New Jersey
have heard evidence against Menendez that centers on his relationship Dr. Salomon Melgen,
a close Menendez ally and Democratic donor.

Menendez said his close relationship with Dr. Melgen and his family dates back more than two decades.
The New Jersey senator declined to answer questions about the case due to the “ongoing inquiry.”
