Presidential Cousins - 04 February, 2007
Sam says
Here is a list of the cousins of George W. Bush - based on one version of
his family tree, posted by some distant relative which I found a few years ago.

I first wrote this March 25 2004...

There has been a fair bit of debate on this topic as people would try to say "if you look far enough back - you will find we are all related" but this is a weak argument. If you look at peoples family tree - you will not find this many direct descendants who were in government and former US presidents.

Since this is the new Illuminati Forum - I thought Id post it for your consideration. We are Ruled.

What is interesting to note - are the presidents who were cousins of
their vice presidents, including;

Bush/Cheney
Bush/Quale
Ford/Rockefeller

etc.. as you can see below.

"..based on one version of his family tree, posted by some distant relative which I found a few years ago..."

I am sorry, as interesting as this is, i can not trust it based on that source.

That part is written a little unclearly. Its not solely based on ONE family tree - its that there is one tree in particular that was easiest to look for the various descendants as the occupations of each was researched.

Also - feel free to dismiss so easily but do a bit of your own effort and you will see that there have been a number of books on the subject.

Even official .gov resources that cite this issue...

The PROBLEM is that nobody sees this as a problem.

Sam, this kind of thing is a problem, but it is the way it has allways been, it is just another dynasty.

I am not American, so i am not aware of the legality of this kind of thing, but even if it was illegal for relatives to hold office, that would not stop friend and collegues from holding office.

Do you have a way of solving this?
