What's next?? they are linked to the Easter Bunny? Could be.
Their descent from Vlad is indirect, through Vlad's family, not directly from him. That linkage is through their kinship to the British Royal Family so they are also all direct discendants of the god Odin.
And of course Kerry is a direct descendant of The Profit, Mohammed.

Pocahontas was married to John Rolfe. They only had one child as she died at a young age. I think he then also only had one child and so on for a couple of generations.
Fortunately one then had a bunch of children and most of the prominent families of Virginia are descended from Pocahontas. One was Robert E. Lee.
BTW, I am also supposed to be related to Pocahontas.

LOL, One of my cats has abnormally long fangs, he must be a distant relation to Count Dracula's cat. BTW, my cats nickname is Count Chocula.

In Leftspeak, a tabloid story like this poking fun at both candidates is code for: our guy blew it with flying colors! Royally blew it!!!

LOL that's a good one....Mohammed. It's actually true.
Burke's Peerage reported it as part of their normal write up on American Presidential Contenders.

Well, my family are direct descendants of Aaron, the brother of Moses.

Most European royalty are related to the Prophet Mohammed though a Morroccan renegade prince who married a Hapsburg back in... whenever. The late Moroccan King used to tease the Euros by starting his letters, "Dear Cousins". It seems that every election, the monarchist types start finding all kinds of connections to all kinds of royals, and every European country finds some connection to themselves (there was a big thread on here about the Bush family's "French connection" a day or so back).
A Biblical literalist friend of mine used to claim that since we were all related to Adam and Eve anyway, racist and other anti-anybody thinking was violating the 4th commandment. I'm no Biblical literalist, but I second that thought.

I read an interesting article a while back which said a large number of American Presidents, something like half, were descended from a hardly known 17th (or was it 18th?) century preacher.

I've got Indian blood in me somehow, but it isn't Pocahontas.

I'm no Biblical literalist, but I second that thought. Maybe more related than that. Genetic findings indicate that everyone who lived before about 3500 BC was either an ancestor of everyone living, or else has no modern descendants.

"...as many as 34 generations to the man who became known as Count Dracula... born in 1431..."
20 years to the generation (which is pretty rabbit-like) gives 680 years, this is 573. Must have relied on the online version of the LDS database. ;')

If I'd lived back then, I think I would have wanted relations with Pocahontas. [oink alert! oink alert!]

That 3500 BC thing wasn't a genetic finding. It was some jokers playing around with some math and their own assumptions. Said that everyone living today is descended from (among others) a person (male? female? they didn't say) who lived in SE China 5500 years ago. Those conclusions are a load. George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent

Bush and Kerry and thousands of others descended from County Dracula's family. Yeah, but, one became a vampire and the other one became a vampire killer.
