George W. Bush and Barack Obama are 10th cousins once removed - linked through a 17th century Massachusetts couple, Samuel Hinckley and Sarah Soolee.
Barack Obama and Dick Cheney are also 11th Cousins.
As a matter of fact every single U.S. president to ever hold office has been descended through the same blood line.
In an election, even though it is generally two cousins running against each other....it is the cousin with the highest connection to Royalty that is chosen to be the President of the United States. In other words, McCain and Barack Obama are two cousins who were running against each other, however through the line of descent Barack has more direct links to Royalty than McCain as he was directly descended through a more powerful member of Royalty.
