I don't thing there are many hobbies or professions more interessting than researching the generations before us. However, I thought you should know that it matters not the least to Black Folks that Obama has ancestors who were slave owners. It's no big deal. Just recently the same was discovered in the family line of Al Sharpton. This goes to show that it comes as no surprise. You should know that there are hundreds probably thousands of Black Folk who have White ancestors and many of them were linked to slave ownership. As far as this being omitted from his book is no biggie. If he becomes the president, one has to find something bigger than this issue to cause a stinch. S. Thomas
