Yes, President Barack Obama is the 10th cousin 1 time removed to President George H. W. Bush and 10th cousin 2 times removed to President George W. Bush. Their common ancestor was Samuel Hinckley. Interestingly another direct descendant of Samuel Hinckley was John Hinckley Jr. who shot President Ronald Reagan.

All human beings ultimately share some common ancestor. However, Obama is no more closely related to Hussein than you or I. The most recent common ancestor between the two likely goes back hundreds of generations, if not thousands.

Hussein is a relatively common name in the Islamic World (like Mark or George in English). In the case of Saddam Hussein, Hussein is his father's name; his actual surname is al-Tikriti. In the case of Barack Obama, Hussein is the name of his father's father. It is as absurd to say that Barack Obama and Saddam Hussein are related since they both have ancestors named Hussein, just as it would be absurd to think that every Mark is related to every other Mark.
