Dear DSH et al.,
Thanks for that update re: Senator Obama. I see WAR has already
been working on his ancestry, which (besides Mareen Duvall) is
currently traced to the emigrant Edward FitzRandolph, among others:

Besides assorted nobility and Magna Carta sureties, there is at
least 1 line back to Hugh Capet, and 1 to the Emperor Lothar I (d.
855). Plus Henry the Fowler, and a multitude of the expected 10th-9th
century ancestors.
All we have to do now is wait for the traditional 'Best royal
ancestry wins White House' journalism......
Cheers,
John

The best comment was: "If I didn't know better I would have said American
politics had just jumped the shark."
