The Dakotas and most points west (except Utah + the left coast) were mostly settled 30-50 years later.

Guardian is not trustworthy, and this article is slanted. From what I’ve read, Trump’s grandfather ran a hotel, not a brothel per se. Did bad things happen there—maybe, but I’m reluctant to take the word of this rag without more proof.

Well, I gotta admit, it's pretty humiliating to have to go to Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to find a head of state. We couldn't do any better than that?

Oh, wait, that was somebody else...changed their family name to Windsor, IIRC...

I never heard the name, but I did hear back in the 90s that it was some mob guy from Chicago who vacationed down there, and I also read the part about him taking care of little Billy.

You are probably right. Every other person born in 1869 is dead now.

When I was a kid I knew someone born in 1869--the mother of a friend of my grandmother. We were at their house the day she celebrated her 90th birthday, which was also my sister's second birthday (which is why I know her date of birth).

Billy Blythe was killed in a car accident before William Jefferson Clinton was born.

Supposedly there is a picture of him in a win picture with one of his horses in the racing office at Thistledown, the old timers say he looks just like Bill. Next time I’m there I will look for it and get a picture. There’s hundreds of win picture to look through but I will try.

I guess that disqualifies Trump from the presidency.

That’s not my understanding. My recollection is that Billy Blythe died a year or two after his return from WW2. He was a traveling salesman and was killed in a car wreck in Kansas or Oklahoma or someplace like that. Bill Jr. was just a baby. He had been born 6 months after Billy Sr. got back from the war. A little embarassing for old Virginia.

I’d guess, Trump has no intention of paying a visit to the land of Frau Merkel anytime soon anyways . . .

The number of jobs created and a boost to the US economy? Billions of $? Heck yes!

Unfortunately liberals are too stupid to realize this and will destroy opportunities and kill jobs in an attempt to prove their point.

That history regarding Billy’s father is probably why he felt no problem changing his name to his step-father’s.
A neighbor/friend of mine went to school with Billy. When asked what Clinton was like in school, his reply was, “can’t trust him now, couldn’t trust him then!” WJC was a born liar. My friend said that Billy was not raised in poverty as he wanted all to believe. His s/father had a car dealership and they lived on the “right side of the tracks.” Another note, my friend Bob was put ahead in school, Billy stayed with his class. Bob retired as a Colonel in the US Army. (Full Bird that is) Billy was a draft dodger who lied to his ROTC detachment commander to avoid service to his country.
The Clintons have always been about serving themselves and no one else.

The Wikipedia article on William Jefferson Blythe, Jr., has his date of birth as Feb. 27, 1910, and his date of death as May 17, 1946. William Jefferson Clinton was born on August 19, 1946.

Blythe was married three times. The end of his second marriage was after the beginning of his marriage to Bill Clinton's mother.
