Thanks to the intrepid sleuthing of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, today the AP reported that Barack Obama is distantly related to the Bushes, the Cheneys, and Robert E Lee, mostly via people that died shortly after England begat the colonies. [See family tree, right.]
Hilary Clinton, whose family functions are apparently more fun, counts Madonna, Camilla Parker-Bowles, and Jack Kerouac among her kin.
