The presidential candidate with the most royal genes and chromosomes has, up to now, always won the White House, say the researchers at Burkes Peerage.

They say Bushs blue blood runs thicker than Vice President Al Gores. In fact it trumps the royal ties of every other president to date, including his fathers. It seems George W. has inherited his mothers deep blue bloodline. His Royal Highness, King Dubya

Some of the governors royal kin include Britains Queen Elizabeth II, the Queen Mother, Dutchess Sarah Fergy Ferguson and even the late Princess Diana. His most prominent ancestor may be Englands King Charles II, who shared the governors vision of a strong military. Going back nearly 1000 years, Brooks-Baker points out both the Bush and Pierce families [Barbara Bushs maiden name is Pierce] were high society. Not one member of his family was working class, middle class, or even middle, middle class, he notes. Als Family Hardly Peasants Gores family members werent exactly peasants. The vice presidents family tree includes Charlemagne and three Holy Roman emperors. And a good fight wouldnt frighten the vice presidents most famous ancestor, Englands Edward I best known today as the king who defeated, then executed Braveheart. Edward was also said to be very popular with the ladies. His descendent, Al Gore certainly won the hearts of many American ladies with that kiss he publicly planted on wife Tipper.

Although Gore is running a bit behind Bush in the European royal count, his blood-line runs close to some American home-grown nobility, including Thomas Jefferson, Daniel Boone, and Buffalo Bill Cody. Trump Card Buckingham Palace politely declined to comment on the recorded royal connections of either candidate. This sort of thing happens every time theres an American Presidential Election, scoffed one palace official. But if the Burkes Peerage prediction has its doubters, the company doesnt hesitate to defend its crowning legacy. Y ou cant just write off 200 years of accurate predictions, says BrooksBaker pointing out Mike Dukakis learned about the royal factor the hard way. The 1988 Democratic nominee and son of Greek immigrants had no connections to any European thrones, and he lost in a landslide. October Surpise? Although Bush maintains a clear royal advantage, Burkes Peerage claims to know why the race is so close. Never in the history of the United States have two presidential candidates been as well endowed with royal alliances. However the royal researchers are hedging their bets saying their dig through the documents continues.

Brooks-Baker says Gore still has a chance to prove hes royal enough for the top job. Like Jimmy Carter, it is possible that he is the product of several royal love children of the past, Brooks-Baker says. Those connections are harder to trace. Thus Burkes Peerage leaves open the possibility for an October surprise and either a Bush, or a Gore, coronation Nov. 7.
