While Bill's underhanded tactics would be more by the books in comparison, I'd imagine Micheal's way is definitely much less restraint, as you pointed out. Thomas Walker would be the one to serve as his "handler" and would object to that type of behavior but I'm thinking Bill would allow it in some cases in order to possibly distract attention Matthew's attention elsewhere.

In terms of the student story arc, Emily frankly hates her family's role in politics. Not just because it doesn't necessarily catch her interest but she also sees her grandfather as a wellmeant but misguided leader. During her brief times in Washington, she saw how much influence his advisors had over him and knew it could only end up with him pursuing their interests. The Lawton name is somewhat synonymous with "figurehead" to her. So she might be on the sidelines but would probably be involved.
