WASHINGTON (Reuters) - There's no sign of a family reunion planned, but U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney and Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama are distant cousins.

So says the vice president's wife, Lynne Cheney, who said she discovered that her husband of 43 years is eighth cousins with the senator from Illinois.

The two men could hardly be more different. Cheney is an advocate for pursuing the war in Iraq to try to stabilize the country, while Obama wants to get U.S. troops out of Iraq.

Mrs. Cheney told MSNBC on Tuesday that it was "an amazing American story that one ancestor ... could be responsible down the family line for lives that have taken such different and varied paths."

The common ancestor was Mareen Devall, who the Chicago Sun-Times said was a 17th century immigrant from France.

Mrs. Cheney said she discovered the link through family research for her new book, "Blue Skies, No Fences," about growing up in Wyoming.

I'd imagine that anyone citing his heritage to back up their stance wouldn't have been voting for him in the first place. Seeing as how that's fucking retarded and all.

Is the first reason that he's black?

I'm so scared of this next election. We got a black guy we aren't prepared for, a women (i'll leave my personal opinion out) and a bunch of others flopping back and forth. sounds like fun.

wow you are a fucking idiot...why do so many people on here automatically assume someone is a republican when they say something bad about a democrat ? get over yourselves. The fact is that every candidate that is running right now should be allowed to be president. I probably won't even vote.

I didn't automatically assume anything you lil bitch. Why don't you bitch some more?

Considering your pathetic state elected a fuckstick like Arnold Schawernegher, I wouldn't mind it if all you stupid bastards weren't allowed to vote.

Actually everyone should be allowed to vote, because that is the principle that our country was founded on.

I'm personally for Stephen Colbert.

I'm leaning towards Kucinich although he'd never win the primary and even if he did, he wouldn't get voted in for president.

Funny that you bring that up since it is the absolute opposite.

Were African-Americans allowed to vote? Women? Those who didn't own property? Puerto Ricans? Shit, are Puerto Ricans not residing in the CONUS allowed to vote to this day? Hmmmm....

Technically Randy-rah-ooo, taken from that Rob Schneider guy-in-office-who-makes-phrases-out-of-their-names sketch.

For any of you that didn't get the Barack "clean" joke, pay more fucking attention to the news. I never even watch the shit and I'm more conscious of current event references than you.
