Surely if we are THAT close, the former first lady and I should be a DNA match... IF the Geni is correct.

Hi!
I'm want to know How I am related to Barack Obama. In my tree they say I'm The 44th.

:)

Thank you. So much Cynthia Curtis, A183502, US7875087
That was so sweet of you. Can you let me know how you did this? Unfortunately there are not enough African-American profiles being showcased like this. Part of the reason is because you cannot find a lot of records on a lot of the African American profiles because of slavery. This is why I have them working on trying to find lines to more African-Americans. I am so happy that you did this, but more importantly I am proud that you’ are my cousin and I love you very much. Thank you so much for your concern. You have a wonderful day sweetie . Karen

I'm a Caucasian guy who is proudly the 18th Cousin of Barack Obama and 20th Cousin of Michelle Obama.

For anyone who would be interested:

-President Barack Obama & Queen Elizabeth II are 10th Cousins 3xRemoved AS WELL AS 29th Cousins.

-1st Lady Michelle Obama & Queen Elizabeth II are 12th Cousin 4xRemoved.

It appears he has not yet been added and that makes me sad and CURIOUS...what could be a reason NOT to add him?

What a wonderful idea. Thank you for doing this. Before I discovered I was a 14th cousin, I served as Staging Location Director for about 1/3 of Portsmouth VA for both of his elections. That makes your house the place where people come to pick up packets to knock on Democratic doors to remind people to vote on the weekend before and the four days leading up to and including the election. Your house is not your own for two weeks. It was exciting to have a part in making those elections have a successful conclusions. I had an opportunity to go to one of his rallies in Norfolk in 2008, and, along with 20 other election workers, have my picture taken with him. I found out later that if you contributed $10,000 to the campaign, you could have your picture taken with him. I really treasure that photo! Frances Olsen

Oh my Frances Marie (Baucom) Olsen! That is a wonderful story but look at this!:

I see that the Project is based on a book from 2002
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_Greatest_African_Americans
and is why he has not been added to this Project
https://www.geni.com/projects/100-Greatest-African-Americans/25471
but I have Invited him to a new Project and hope to see him there :)
