#5 The biggest problem with the claim that Thomas Jefferson sired those mulatto children is that the DNA test only indicated a male in the Jefferson line, and the Left conveniently left out his brother and his five nephews from their 'conclusion'. |

#4 Dammit. I seem to be having some sort of randomly occurring negative resonance with the iPad and comments -- somehow I accidentally trolled Broadhead6's comment. *sigh*. Until badanov fixes it, here's what he wrote: #1Â Â I read the Joe Ellis book on TJ - "American Sphinx" - he concluded that TJ was most likely the father of at least one of Sally's kids. I think it was based off the DNA test from 1998. Randolph Jefferson is an interesting angle. I admire TJ (& all the Founders for that matter) and even if this is true, doesn't really bother me.

#3 I still root for the idea of "Blackadder Comes to America", with Blackadder descendents becoming White House fixtures. For example, whenever Thomas Jefferson enters the room he has his arms around two young, grinning and giggling black girls, but never the same two. The running gag is that they whisper to him and he gets a lewd grin before excusing himself and them. And George Washington belongs to dozens of secret societies, so is continually using nonsensical code expressions, and greeting about every third person on the street with hand signals. And the walls are full of secret passages, ceremonial robes, and ritual be-bobs. |

#2 Honestly, I know it's total Leftist BS, but I always kind of enjoyed Gore Vidal's take on Jefferson from his novel Burr: mulatto children underfoot everywhere, mad science gadgets and weird inventions popping out of the walls... |
