Michelle Obama is not our first black First Lady; Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was. Jackie O, perhaps America's most emulated and admired First Lady, descended from a family known as the van Salee's, who were described as "mulatto" in the 17th century. This family traced its lineage in part to a Dutch mariner named Jan Jensen, who turned Turk (what some Europeans called "going native"), which was more popular than common history reveals. It is widely believed Jensen fathered two children, Anthony and Abraham van Salee, by a Moorish concubine. Following a dispute with his white wife, Anthony van Salee was exiled to territory across the river, where he became Brooklyn's first settler. Until a few decades ago, this property adjoining Coney Island was called Turk's Island after Anthony van Salle -- the term "Turk," in his day being synonymous with Moor (North African). A descendant, John van Salee De Grasse, born in 1825, was the first black American formally educated as a doctor. When Jackie Kennedy was asked about her van Salee roots during the height of the Civil Rights Movement, she called her ancestors "Jewish." Of course, her socialite father, born in 1891, was nicknamed "Black Jack" Bouvier for his swarthy complexion. In the 1960s, journalists described the First Lady's features as "French," earning her the cover page of countless magazines, including film and fan publications. Not only Kennedy Onassis, but well-borns Humphrey Bogart and Gloria Vanderbilt (and thus Anderson Cooper), are van Salee descendants. alternet.org

koan - That is really weak. The pew poll shows that 51% of scientist BELIEVE IN GOD, UNIVERSAL SPIRIT OR HIGHER POWER. Even though you claim there is not one shred of hard evidence that they exist. It seems far more reasonable that there are many believing scientist who would rather not admit to it. Atheist have nothing to fear from Christians. Believers who are scientist do have a lot to fear from the atheist within the scientific community. Ostracism is the result of coming out as a believer. You have no credibility whatsoever with me after this post. You cannot be so stupid as to believe this. I have always thought you were an idiot but I did think you were a serious one. Now I see that you are just a dishonest buffoon and not worthy of any respect whatsoever. Your post: "Most atheists are still in the closet and that includes many scientists out of fear of killer Christians-lol. They know the history of Christianity. You Christians burn apostates and heretics at the stake, torture them, put them on the rack and draw and quarter them. So it is best not to tell you guys the truth-lol! Saying we have a personal god and are spiritual seems to calm you-lol." BTW - Neither Christians nor Christianity ever did any of those things. The Catholic Church during the dark ages was extremely evil and in ignorance, pride and sinfulness committed atrocities in the name of Christianity. Those evil atrocities had nothing to do with true Christians or the teachings of Christianity. Those atrocities were and are anathema to the teachings of Christianity as revealed in the New Testament of the Bible. It is upon The New Testament of the Bible that Christianity is based. It is the authority in all matters of faith and practice.
