Being in the genealogy field for over 20 years (since I was a teen), my observation is that amateur genealogists are almost entirely conservatives.
Professional genealogists, like the ones at New England Historic Genealogical Society and well known ones like Megan Smolenyak and Gary Boyd Roberts, are ultra liberal.
Ms. Smolenyak has written extensively on Obama’s wife’s slave roots, and liberal icons like Rachel Maddow and VP Biden.
She has a blog on HuffingtonPost. I asked her point blank if she just wants a job in the Obama administration. She responded by blocking me and calling a “troll” and “stalker.”
I never watched that PBS TV show about Hollywierdos family history because the genealogists are all liberals.
The primary reason that there are now a lot of blacks involved in doing family history research is in order to establish official “slave blood” so as to get a place in line for the Obama forthcoming African American Reparations plan.
