Bush n' Obama Kinfolk

heart · 04-02-2008, 12:44 AM

These are always fun:

Obama a distant cousin of Bush
Close political rivals - now there's a connection in their family histories
It has emerged that Barack Obama is a tenth cousin, once removed, of the man whose job he wants - George W Bush.

I also heard Hillary is related to Camilla.
Laura Bush is related to McCain.
Hillary is related to Angelina Jolie and
Obama to Brad Pitt.

I don't remember ever seeing all these relationships uncovered like this before... maybe bloggers researching? It would be interesting to see if there were interesting relatives uncovered with past candidates.

I heard that Aleister Crowley was George W. Bush's grandfather, and Barbara Bush's father.

Was Aleister Crowley Barbara Bush's Father?

lol, oh yeah I read that one too.

Thanks for bringining it up for this thread.

Seanan, they do it every election time. Kerry and Bush also related. Cheney and Powell distant cousins too I think.

Bill Clinton related to English royality through his mother's side, I think too.
