Conway... Looks 25 years old... No charisma... HORRIBLE casting..

He does look young, but no younger than Marco Rubio in my opinion. So it's not that unrealistic. I think it was stated or assumed that he was supposed to be in his mid forties (I think he left the military and went into politics at 36 years of age). If that's the case, then yeah, he looks too young for a 40 something white dude. He's supposed to be a seasoned individual but he looks like he is just getting started.

That entire family was horrendous... despite his age, he lacked charisma. His lines were wooden and did not seem believable at all. I enjoyed his role in The Killing and I'm surprised he did such a bad job here. Everything he tried did not look good - even down to that famous way politicians use their thumbs when speaking.
Ugh, he was bad.

And then there was the wife. The accent was terrible, she was pointless and added nothing. If anything, she reminded me of those wives who left their husbands after 3 years.

Then the son - what an annoying little sh*t - I was waiting for Claire to scare the p!ss out of him when the family spent the night.

The only character I could tolerate was the daughter - and that's because she was basically mute.

Joel Kinnaman is 38 years old, which means Conway meets the age requirement for POTUS.

I didn't have a problem with his looks, I believe they wanted the character to look young. I disliked everything about his acting though, it's really the only performance on the TV show that I don't care for. Usually they nail the casting on HoC, but here they allowed Kinnaman to practically ruin what could've been a great and interesting character.

Episode 5, season 1...
I realuze the character is not as filthy-rich as most of the others, but to go to the Cotesworth gala in that $2, cheap-ass spandex dress and clunky black shoes looking like a complete schlump??? And yes, I'd say that about a shoddily-dressed male character as well. Style does NOT equal money...yeeccch...

His youth and smugness is why I actually think it was good casting. I find him unlikeable and easy to root against, which is perfect since I find myself rooting for Frank (no matter how dark and disturbing he gets).

I love Jole but he looks terrible in his suits.
