Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted June 28, 2023 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) He should run this as a campaign ad. https://www.oann.com/newsroom/report-trump-is-the-only-living-president-whose-ancestors-did-not-own-slaves/ The outlet Reuters, which politically leans center-left, claimed that Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton were all born from ancestors who had a slave-owning past. Former President Barack Obama, the United States’ first Black president, can also trace his family’s slave-owning ancestors down to one individual on his White mother’s side of the family who had reportedly subjugated two humans. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/572125-biden-ancestors-owned-enslaved-people-genealogist-says/ A genealogist who has conducted a sweeping look into President Biden’s lineage says records show some of the Scranton, Pa., native’s ancestors on his father’s side owned enslaved people. Alexander Bannerman, who along with presidential lineage expert Gary Boyd Roberts co-authored an article on Biden’s ancestry for the winter 2021 issue of the New England Historic Genealogical Society’s American Ancestors Magazine, told Politico that he came across the findings while looking through census records and slave schedules from Maryland. According to Bannerman, the 1800 census showed that Biden’s great-great-great-grandfather, Jesse Robinett, owned two enslaved people in Allegany County, and another great-great-great-grandfather, Thomas Randle, enslaved a 14-year-old boy in Baltimore County.

p51mstg Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 21 minutes ago, Steve753 said: No one alive today has owned slaves. Or, employed slaves? That'd be an interesting stat, with all of the slave labor in China and complete domination of Chinese suppliers in the US economy. But, the original statement was that Trump is the only US President to not have any ancestors that owned slaves, and that's pretty interesting. It should humble everyone, but it won't. Nobody these days abides by the old rule, let those without sin cast the first stone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
