Are Step-Parents' Genes Inheritable?

A quote jumped out at me in the otherwise tame Clemens interview today. I thought for a moment I misremembered what he said, until I saw the partial transcript at Awful Announcing.

"You know guys, let me just add to it. Common sense…our family has a history of heart conditions. My brother had a heart attack in his late 40’s, my step-dad died of a heart attack. I mean it would be suicidal for me to think about even taking any of these dangerous drugs."

He might as well be his step father's brother's, nephew's, cousin's, former room mate.
