Anyone have a good theory to this or is it a crazy coincidence? A Genghis khan situation maybe? From my understanding, every United States president, except for two (Martin Van Buren & Donald Trump) are descendants from John “Lackland” Plantagenet, the King of England (1199-1216) who coincidentally also signed the magna carta, the first written document outlining the principle that the king and his government was not above the law. Any ideas, theories or opinions as to how or why they’re all related???

    1. Rich people marry other rich people and use their connections to elevate one another’s children.

      Presidents are selected by committees, then presented to the people to vote on which of the approved candidates should be able to run. Trump was only selected by the GOP committee because they thought that would guarantee the win for Hillary.

      Dude was from 1100ad, chances are if you’re European you have some relation to him. Same thing with Charlemagne. Every single European is related to Charlemagne, it’s not special its a numbers game.

      After that many generational cycles the odds of anyone actually exhibiting any genetic traits from ol’ Johnny P. however is infinitesimal. Just goes to show how closely related we all are, and how closely related our descendants will be with Nick Cannon.

    3. Interesting fact – Both George Washington and his Brother Lawrence Washington were British Army Officers.

      Infact Lawrence Washington was a highly decorated British Light Infantry Marine.

    4. Another interesting fact is Vladimir Putin, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, Adolf Hitler, Josep Stalin, Alex Jones and Elon Musk are all descended from the same person.

    5. “The truth is, that in large part the members of the political families of America, past and present, are not separate like chocolates, but form a mesh of interconnected families.  Less chocolates in a box, more a single pan of hash-browns.”

      “In short, **America has a ruling oligarchy.”**

      “So it doesn’t really matter if the name of the family is Bush, Roosevelt, Fish or Jefferson, Harrison, Frelinghuysen or Rockefeller.”

      **“Sixteen of the Presidential families (post Washington) arrived before 1677 and fully a dozen arrived before 1640.** Indeed, the only Presidents whose families were not already established before the Declaration of Independence in 1776 were Buchanan, Arthur, Wilson and Kennedy.  Surprisingly, for all that he plays on a Kenyan father, this also includes President Obama.”

      **“None arrived after the Civil War of the 1860’s. Yet it was after the Civil War that the great flow of migrants came.”**

      “If you were to go (and you should) to that authoritative site, [The Political Graveyard,](http://politicalgraveyard.com) you will find lists and lists of everyone who has ever been involved in politics in America.”

      “Political Graveyard also lumps some of these politicians together into familial groups for ease.  The site recognises 713 such family groups”

      “about 600 families over the history of America which have held power.  And this is not a kick in the teeth away from the 600 that Huey Long was suggesting ruled America way back in the thirties.”

      Huey Long stated:

      *“I find that the Morgan and Rockefeller groups alone held, together 341 directorships in 112 banks, railroad, insurance and other corporations, and one of this group in an after dinner speech …asserted that 12 men in the United States controlled the business of the nation.”*

      It kinda makes sense

      The King’s family was probably big af and his sons/daughters were sent to wed other royalty which sent their kids to wed other royalty families and so on and so forth
