A esposa do vice-presidente Dick Cheney dos E.U. revelou que seu marido é pròxima bastante relacionado ao Barack esperançoso presidencial democrático Obama para o chamar “primo”.

Lynne Cheney disse que tinha feito a descoberta improvável do kinship entre o deputado hawkish do presidente George W Bush e o senator preto charismatic de Illinois ao pesquisar o ancestry para seu memoir novo, céus azuis, nenhumas cercas.

Os homens são aparentemente oitavos primos, mas a Sra. Cheney disse que não incluiu esta em seu memoir.

“This is such an amazing American story that one ancestor … could be responsible down the family lines for lives that have taken such different and varied paths as Dick’s and Barack Obama,” Mrs Cheney told MSNBC television.

According to Mrs Cheney’s spokesman, Senator Obama is a descendant of Mareen Duvall.

The French Huguenot’s son married the granddaughter of a Richard Cheney, who arrived in Maryland in the late 1650s from England.

The Vice President’s full name is Richard B Cheney.

A spokesman for Senator Obama, who wants to be the first black US president, offered a tongue-in-cheek response.

“Every family has a black sheep,” said Bill Burton.
