Wouldn’t that mean she’s also related in some way to the Bush family (the presidents, that is, not the baked bean guy), and Winston Churchill?
Palin is related to Bush.
They are using 10th and 11th cousins to do this, which probably means I am related to all these people as well since we have been here almost 400 years and were a prominent family on my dad’s side that settled and scattered it’s way across America.
I don’t think that most people would think to look for such distant connections though, or care about them.
If someone looks as far afield as their 10th and 11th cousins, then it would be hard not to find famous people.
