      Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii to a Kenyan father and an American mother. According to the U.S. Senate Historical Office, he was the fifth African American Senator in U.S. history and the first African American President.

      First Generation:

      1. Barack Hussein OBAMA was born on 4 August 1961 at the Kapiolani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein OBAMA, Sr. of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya, and Stanley Ann DUNHAM of Wichita, Kansas. His parents met while both were attending the East-West Center of the University of Hawaii at Manoa, where his father was enrolled as a foreign student. When Barack Obama was two years old, his parents divorced and his father moved to Massachusetts to continue his education before returning to Kenya.
      In 1964, Barack Obama's mother married Lolo Soetoro, a tennis-playing graduate student, and later an oil manager, from the Indonesian island of Java. Soetoro's student visa was revoked in 1966 because of political unrest in Indonesia, breaking up the new family. After graduating with a degree in anthropology the following year, Ann and her young son, Barack, joined her husband in Jakarta, Indonesia. Obama's half-sister, Maya Soetoro was born after the family moved to Indonesia. Four years later, Ann sent Barack back to the United States to live with his maternal grandmother.
      Barack Obama graduated from Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he met his future wife, Michelle Robinson. They have two daughters, Malia and Sasha.

      Second Generation (Parents):

      2. Barack Hussein OBAMA Sr. was born in 1936 in Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya and died in a car crash in Nairobi, Kenya in 1982, leaving three wives, six sons and a daughter. All but one of his children live in Britain or the United States. One of the brothers died in 1984. He is buried in the village of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya.
      3. Stanley Ann DUNHAM was born on 27 November 1942 in Wichita, Kansas and died 7 November 1995 of ovarian cancer.
      Barack Hussein OBAMA Sr. and Stanley Ann DUNHAM were married in 1960 in Hawaii and had the following children:
      1 i. Barack Hussein OBAMA, Jr.

      Third Generation (Grandparents):

      4. Hussein Onyango OBAMA was born about 1895 and died in 1979. Before settling down to work as a cook for missionaries in Nairobi he was a traveler. Recruited to fight for colonial power England in World War I, he visited Europe and India, and afterward lived for a time in Zanzibar, where he converted from Christianity to Islam, family members said.
      5. Akumu
      Hussein Onyango OBAMA had several wives. His first wife was Helima, with whom he had no children. Second, he married Akuma and they had the following children:
      i. Sarah OBAMA
      1. ii. Barack Hussein OBAMA, Sr.
      iii. Auma OBAMA
      Onyango's third wife was Sarah, the one often referred to by Barack as his "grandmother." She was the primary caregiver for Barack OBAMA Sr. after his mother, Akuma, left the family when her children were still young.
      6. Stanley Armour DUNHAM was born on 23 March 1918 in Kansas and died 8 February 1992 in Honolulu, Hawaii. He is buried in Punchbowl National Cemetery, Honolulu, Hawaii.
      7. Madelyn Lee PAYNE was born in 1922 in Wichita, Kansas and died 3 November 2008 in Honolulu, Hawaii.
      Stanley Armour DUNHAM and Madelyn Lee PAYNE were married on 5 May 1940, and had the following children:
      3. i. Stanley Ann DUNHAM

      Family ties: Candidates' ancestry makes for strange bedfellows

      Hillary Rodham Clinton is related to Canadian Prime Minster Pierre Trudeau.
      Perhaps, now the candidates will play nice.
      For all their insistence on how unlike they are from one another, the three U.S. presidential candidates share some noteworthy family connections, the New England Historic Genealogical Society has found.
      Democratic Sen. Barack Obama, who has made his opposition to the Iraq war a linchpin of his campaign, is distantly related not only to President George W. Bush but also to another wartime leader -- former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
      Because of his shared ancestry with President Bush, Obama is also indirectly related to his rival on the Republican side, Sen. John McCain.
      pixel.gif
      Advertisement
      • McCain, it turns out, is a sixth cousin of First Lady Laura Bush.
        Meanwhile, Sen. Hillary Clinton, is related to beatnik author Jack Kerouac, Canadian Prime Minster Pierre Trudeau and Camilla Parker-Bowles, wife of Prince Charles of England.
        Clinton also shares ancestors with Grammy Award-winning singers Celine Dion and Madonna.
        The senator won a Best Spoken Word Grammy for the audio version of her book, "It Takes a Village." Rival Obama also snagged one in the same category for his book "The Audacity of Hope."
        Conservatives who sometimes accuse Democrats of being in bed with liberal Hollywood elites may have been handed one more round of ammunition by the Society's findings.
        Clinton, the Society said, is related to Angelina Jolie. And Obama is related to Jolie's boyfriend Brad Pitt.
        The New England Historic Genealogical Society, founded in 1845, says it is the oldest such organization in the country. Members spent three years tracing the lineage of the candidates.
        Among its other findings:
        McCain, the Vietnam War veteran who spent five years as a prisoner of war, descends from a long line of kings: Scottish King William the Lion, English King Edward I and French King Louis VII.
        Obama, the son of a white woman from Kansas and a black man from Kenya, is "related to millions of contemporary Americans - perhaps even a significant percentage of the population," the researchers said.
        He is cousins with six U.S presidents, including Lyndon Johnson, Harry Truman and Gerald Ford. He is also linked to American artist Georgia O'Keefe, the Duchess of Windsor and two men who signed the Declaration of Independence.
        Most surprisingly, Obama -- the man who could become America's first African-American president -- is linked by ancestry to Robert E. Lee, who commanded the armies of the Southern slave-holding states during the American civil war.
        Bedfellows, it turns out, make for strange politics.

After a short marriage, his father returned to Kenya and his mother remarried to Lolo Soetoro and moved to Indonesia. From his mother's second marriage, Barack Obama as a half sister, Maya Soetoro. After living in Indonesia briefly, Obama returned to Hawaii where he was primarily raised by his grandparents on his mother's side, Stanley Armour Dunham and Madelyn Lee Payne.

Obama also shares a common descent with former President George Washington with Halfdan, King of Denmark and Sweden and Woden Oden. Obama also shares a common descent through Richard Eltonhead with Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain. His earliest known ancestor in America was Robert Hudson who arrived in Jamestown in 1622 on the ship "James." His mother's ancestors eventually migrated to the midwest, with his mother being from Wichita, Kansas.

        Conclusion:

        Barack Obama has direct ties to George Washington and Martha Washington who were stockholders in the Bank of England/International bankers; grandson of Corporate Executive Officer of the JP Morgan bankers affiliate Bank of Hawaii and some yet unresearched connections to the Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates/Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates due to the DUNHAM name in the Codicil of the Will of Bernice Pauahi Bishop.

        The Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estates/Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estates did invest in the Goldman-Sachs stocks as well......40% plus interest and were served documents to Cease and Desist because they are NOT the owners of the Trust, whose trustees were and remain terrorist activists against the Royal families, and the descendants heirs of the next of kin's descendants of Kalola the first cousin of Bernice Pauahi Bishop.

        s_200_images_politico_com_11_110901_james_carville_605_ap.gif 'People often ask me what advice I would give the White House about various things,' James Carville said. 'Today I was mulling over election results from New York and Nevada while thinking about that very question. What should the White House do now? One word came to mind: Panic.' Carville said Democrats are “past sending out talking points” and said he would tell the president, “The time has come to demand a plan of action that requires a complete change from the direction you are headed.” Carville’s advice: “Fire. Indict. Fight.” Obama must fire someone – “No – fire a lot of people” — because the current team is just not working, Carville wrote.

        You may pass this record of evidence to everyone, for OBAMA is based on WARMONGERS, who have supported SLAVERY over time, is all for NWO - New World Order, One World Order, Promoting Communism, Killing, Murdering Innocents, and more.....

  • II.   BANK OF ENGLAND /International Banks - FUNDS BOTH SIDES OF WAR
     

    About the Bank

    The Bank of England, Threadneedle StreetThe Bank of England is the central bank of the United Kingdom. Sometimes known as the 'Old Lady' of Threadneedle Street, the Bank was founded in 1694, nationalised on 1 March 1946, and gained independence in 1997. Standing at the centre of the UK's financial system, the Bank is committed to promoting and maintaining monetary and financial stability as its contribution to a healthy economy.
    The Bank's roles and functions have evolved and changed over its three-hundred year history. Since its foundation, it has been the Government's banker and, since the late 18th century, it has been banker to the banking system more generally - the bankers' bank. As well as providing banking services to its customers, the Bank of England manages the UK's foreign exchange and gold reserves.
    The Bank has two core purposes - monetary stability and financial stability. The Bank is perhaps most visible to the general public through its banknotes and, more recently, its interest rate decisions. The Bank has had a monopoly on the issue of banknotes in England and Wales since the early 20th century. But it is only since 1997 that the Bank has had statutory responsibility for setting the UK's official interest rate.
    Interest rates decisions are taken by the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee. The MPC has to judge what interest rate is necessary to meet a target for overall inflation in the economy. The inflation target is set each year by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The Bank implements its interest rate decisions through its financial market operations - it sets the interest rate at which the Bank lends to banks and other financial institutions. The Bank has close links with financial markets and institutions. This contact informs a great deal of its work, including its financial stability role and the collation and publication of monetary and banking statistics.

    III.  Martha and George Washington, First President of the United States (actually 5th President) were stockholders of the BANK OF ENGLAND/International banks which invests in WARS, BOTH SIDES OF WAR.
    George Washington descended from the Royal Families of England and began the use of Executive Orders, Presidential Executive Orders, which became a TRADITION and NOT Laws.  The Executive Orders are used similar to the Royal persons status of not being subject to the laws, and having immunities.  George Washington failed to tell the people about his connections to England, his right to use Royal Families immunities.
    George Washington in using the Rush-Baggot Treaty, the Treaty of 1818, maintained connections with his mother country England.  These Treaties are PERMANENT TREATIES between the U.S. and England.

    So far from engaging in a war to perpetuate slavery, I am rejoiced that Slavery is abolished.  I believe it will be greatly for the interest of the South. So fully am I satisfied of this that I would have cheerfully lost all that I have lost by the war, and have suffered all that I have suffered to have this object attained.

    Robert Edward Lee

     Biography
    (1807-1870), American soldier, general in the Confederate States
     
    army, was the youngest son of major-general Henry Lee, called " Light Horse Harry
     
    ." He was born at Stratford, Westmoreland county, Virginia, on the 19th of January 1807, and entered West Point in 1825. Graduating four years later second in his class, he was given a commission in the U.S. Engineer Corps. In 1831 he married Mary, daughter of G. W. P. Custis, the adopted son of Washington and the grandson of Mrs. Washington. In 1836 he became first lieutenant, and in 1838 captain. In this rank he took part in the Mexican War
     
    , repeatedly winning distinction for conduct and bravery. He received the brevets of major for Cerro Gordo
     
    , lieut.-colonel for Contreras
     
    -Churubusco
     
    and colonel for Chapultepec

    Later in Life
    After the war he was employed in engineer work at Washington and Baltimore, during which time, as before the war, he resided on the great Arlington estate, near Washington, which had come to him through his wife. In 1852 he was appointed superintendent of West Point, and during his three years here he carried out many important changes in the academy. Under him as cadets were his son G. W. Custis Lee, his nephew, Fitzhugh Lee and J. E. B. Stuart
     
    , all of whom became general officers in the Civil War. In 1855 he was appointed as lieut.-colonel to the 2nd Cavalry, commanded by Colonel Sidney Johnston
     
    , with whom he served against the Indians of the Texas border. In 1859, while at Arlington on leave, he was summoned to command the United States troops sent to deal with the John Brown raid on Harper's Ferry
     
    . In March 1861
     
    he was made colonel of the 1st U.S. Cavalry; but his career in the old army ended with the secession of Virginia in the following month. Lee was strongly averse to secession, but felt obliged to conform to the action of his own state. The Federal authorities offered Lee the command of the field army about to invade the South, which he refused. Resigning his commission, he made his way to Richmond
     
    and was at once made a major-general in the Virginian forces. A few weeks later he became a brigadier-general (then the highest rank) in the Confederate service.
    The military operations with which the great Civil War opened in 1861 were directed by President Davis
     
    and General Lee. Lee was personally in charge of the unsuccessful West Virginian operations in the autumn, and, having been made a full general on the 31st of August, during the winter he devoted his experience as an engineer to the fortification and general defense of the Atlantic coast. Thence, when the well-drilled Army of the Potomac
     
    was about to descend upon Richmond, he was hurriedly recalled to Richmond. General Johnston
     
    was wounded at the battle of Fair Oaks
     
    (Seven Pines) on the 31st of May 1862, and General Robert E. Lee was assigned to the command of the famous Army of Northern Virginia which for the next three years " carried the rebellion on its bayonets." Little can be said of Lee's career as a commander-in-chief that is not an integral part of the history of the Civil War. His first success was the " Seven Days' Battle " in which he stopped McClellan
     
    's advance; this was quickly followed up by the crushing defeat of the Federal army under Pope
     
    , the invasion of Maryland and the sanguinary and indecisive battle of the Antietam
     
    . The year ended with another great victory at Fredericksburg
     
    . Chancellorsville
     
    , won against odds of two to one, and the great three days' battle of Gettysburg
     
    , where for the first time fortune turned decisively against the Confederates, were the chief events of 1863. In the autumn Lee fought a war of maneuver against General Meade
     
    . The tremendous struggle of 1864 between Lee and Grant
     
    included the battles of the Wilderness
     
    , Spotsylvania
     
    , North Anna, Cold Harbor
     
    and the long siege of Petersburg
     
    , in which, almost invariably, Lee was locally successful. But the steady pressure of his unrelenting opponent slowly wore down his strength. At last with not more than one man to oppose to Grant's three he was compelled to break out of his Petersburg
     
    lines (April 1865). A series of heavy combats revealed his purpose, and Grant pursued the dwindling remnants of Lee's army to the westward. Headed off by the Federal cavalry, and pressed closely in rear by Grant's main body, General Lee had no alternative but to surrender. At Appomattox Court House
     
    , on the 9th of April, the career of the Army of Northern Virginia came to an end. Lee's farewell order
     
    was issued on the following day, and within a few weeks the Confederacy
     
    was at an end. For a few months Lee lived quietly in Powhatan county, making his formal submission to the Federal authorities and urging on his own people acceptance of the new conditions. In August he was offered, and accepted, the presidency of Washington College, Lexington (now Washington and Lee University), a post which he occupied until his death
     
    on the 12th of October 1870 He was buried in the college grounds.
    By his achievements he won a high place amongst the great generals of history. - Though hampered by lack of materials and by political necessities, his strategy was daring always, and he never hesitated to take the gravest risks. On the field of battle he was as energetic in attack as he was constant in defense, and his personal influence over the men whom he led was extraordinary. No student of the American Civil War can fail to notice how the influence of Lee dominated the course of the struggle, and his surpassing ability was never more conspicuously shown than in the last hopeless stages of the contest. The personal history of Lee is lost in the history of the great crisis of America's national life; friends and foes alike acknowledged the purity of his motives, the virtues of his private life, his earnest Christianity
     
    and the unrepining loyalty with which he accepted the ruin of his party.
