    they found very few relatively meaningless correlations.

    if you look at any two people hard enough you can find as many, if not more meaningless correlations.

    I'm sorry, that just looks like someone's 'busy work' to me. No real substance.

    Mr. Wonderful fed me the drill a week or so ago about the 7 degrees of separation. Seems as though there's some mathematical equation to the whole deal which can tie anyone to XYZ person. I'm sure I'm not quoting him 100%. Some nights I just half listen, because well...I'm 54 and I get tired. :)

    I thought they would come up with something better than this, such as Barack was conceived by Kennedy. :)

    It's fun to look for links, but more telling to look for differences.

    Obama didn't have a massively rich daddy to finance his political career.
    Kennedy's mother never had to use food stamps.
    Obama has never been in the military or lived with chronic pain from a war injury.
    Kennedy's father wasn't from Kenya.

    Etc.

    What a crazy coincidence that they had nothing in common in all those things! :)
