Angelina Jolie And Brad Pitt Related To Presidental Candidates

Did you hear this story? As LUCK would have it, Angelina Jolie is related to Hilary Clinton and Brad Pitt is related to Obama according to a new genealogy report. My friend David over at Pretty on the Outside sent me these pictures to commemorate the occasion. Will it change their vote for the election? Will the couple break up over their new political allegiances? Will... ah who am I kidding?The pictures are funny though right? Brad resembles Jessica Simpson's hair stylist while Angeline looks a bit like Diane Sawyer with a few too many lip injections. LOVE IT!

Okay ew I NEVER need to see that again.

who cares?
And this is news because...............
In a new report by the AP, the New England Historic Genealogical Society has found a link between Senator Barack Obama and actor Brad Pitt, and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and Pitt’s girlfriend, Angelina Jolie.
According to the organization, Pitt and Obama are ninth cousins, linked by a man named Edwin Hickman, who died in Virgina in 1769. Clinton and Jolie are also ninth cousins, twice removed, who are both related to a Jean Cusson who died in St. Sulpice, Quebec, in 1718. Spokesman for the Obama campaign, Ben LaBolt, declined to comment on the senator’s ancestry.
Clinton, who is of French Canadian descent on her mother’s side, is also a distant cousin of Madonna, Celine Dion and Alanis Morrissette, according to the report. Obama, the son of a white woman from Kansas and a black man from Kenya, can call six U.S. presidents, including George W. Bush, his cousins.
Genealogist Christopher Child says that while many candidates spend time pointing out the differences between them, their ancestry shows they are more alike than they think. “It shows that lots of different people can be related, people you wouldn’t necessarily expect,†Child says.
Child says Obama is also distantly linked to Winston Churchill, Civil War General Robert E. Lee, and–(drum roll please)–Vice President Dick Cheney.
The New England Historic Genealogical Society was founded in 1845, and is the largest and oldest non profit genealogical organization in the country.
