Hey I got that one from a coworker who dated her second cousin. She actually saw it as an advantage. Their aunt married them.

In their case some might say that intermingling with some genes for intelligence would have been beneficial.

Sick. Eleanor and FDR were first cousins.

Not true, they were more like fifth cousins. It was quite a distant relationship.
