Did you know every
presidential election in the United States is a family quarrel,
so to speak? Every president since and including George
Washington are related--mostly distantly related (except John
Adams and John Quincy Adams, William Henry Harrison and Benjamin
Harrison, George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush who are closely
related). This has fueled conspiracy theories about royal
bloodlines. (Freemasonry, the Illuminati, etc). For instance, 34
presidents are descendants of Charlemagne, first emperor of the
Holy Roman Empire. 800-814. Franklin Roosevelt was a fifth
cousin of Theodore Roosevelt. FDR and Grover Cleveland were
half-cousins. FDR married Theodore's niece Eleanor. Richard
Nixon and Jimmy Carter were sixth cousins. Obama and G. W. Bush
are 11th cousins. Obama and Dick Cheney are eighth cousins.
Interested in the others? Look 'em up. Not only are they related
to each other but distantly to royalty. What is even more
curious is the fact that the presidential candidate with the
most royal blood in their veins always wins the election! One
genealogical expert advised American voters if they want to get
free from this royal bloodline domination vote for Ron Paul,
Dennis Kucinich or James Ventura, none of which has any ties to
royalty. But...if the Bible is true, or Louis Leakey) everyone
on earth is related. What a family reunion that would make!
