Obama wrote in his autobiography that one of his great-great-grandfathers was a decorated Union soldier, but family rumors said he was also distantly related to Jefferson Davis, head of the Confederacy Other then his book .. I have yet to hear him mention that

Makes you wonder how many places removed from the publishing of these clinton hit pieces the source must be to cover Rodham-rodent's butt.

Why isn't it that all these geneology checks don't take one all the way back to a monkey? Evolutionists say they should.

It is indeed ironic that the first black person with a halfway decent chance to reach the top of US politics is not the descendant of slaves, did not even have any family member suffer under Jim Crowe, but did have ancestors that owned slaves, that owned the ancestors of those who marched in Selma.

It doesn't currently reflect the shallow being that he is now in my opinion. I'm sure one of my ancestors was a real POS as well.

I'm almost convinced that the Clintons were once slaves owned by Obama.

So what? Of all the reasons that there are to oppose the Obama candidacy, this isn't one of them.

Well lets just check other Presidents and presidential candidates ancestry to see if there was slave ownership.

Genealogist finds Obama's ancestors owned slaves Anyone tracing their lineage back far enough (assuming ANYONE in that lineage was talented and achieved a power status) will find that their ancestors "owned slaves"!
Hell, some people don't have to go back very far at all!!!

Legacy Records show the Walker branch of President George W. Bush’s family, which settled in central Illinois, included slave owners.

McCain's ancestors owned slaves
***
Reitwiesner's research identifies two other presidential candidates, Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona and former Democratic Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, as descendants of slave owners. Three of McCain's great-great-grandfathers in Mississippi owned slaves, including one who owned 52 in 1860. Two ancestors of Edwards owned one slave each in Georgia in 1860.
