“Stanley Ann Dunham did NOT carry the “African genes” that were found in members of the Bunch family. That’s a fact.”

Without having maternal DNA evidence from Stanley Ann herself or from another woman in her direct maternal line, I do not believe a claim of “fact” is possible as to what Stanley Ann carried in her genes or not.

IMO, an honest, sincere investigator will NEVER overstate claims that evidence is “fact.”

What I said is fact IF you accept that Stanley Ann Dunham’s grandmother is descended from John Bunch.

I said, “the African genes that were found in members of the Bunch family.” Those genes are on the Y-chromosome. Stanley Ann, nor Madelyn, nor Leona McCurry carry THOSE genes.

I am an honest, sincere investigator, and I resemble your implication. (Yes, that’s a joke.)

My point was that even IF John Punch was father to John Bunch and even IF THAT particular John Bunch was the progenitor of Stanley Ann’s grandmother, genes on his Y-chromosome will NOT be found in Stanley Ann Dunham. Nor her son. Nor her daughter.

The DNA that was tested did not belong to Obama, or his mother, or his grandmother, or his great-grandmother.

SOME male members of the MANY Bunch families allegedly got their Y-chromosomes tested and some of them were found to have these so-called “African” genes.

You used the word “probable”, if I recall. I was simply pointing out that, as Rush Limbaugh said, it’s probably a fairytale. Professional genealogists know better.
