Scotland for Obama.

Mr Smith reads that "John McCain, the Republican presidential contender, and Barack Obama, his Democrat rival, are both descended from the same Scottish king, it has been claimed. According to research by an American genealogist, they share a common bloodline that can be traced to William I of Scotland, or William the Lion. It was disclosed last year that Mr Obama was a descendant of the monarch who ruled Scotland from 1165 to 1214, and his background and upbringing spans the globe ..."

Its a small world afterall. Mr Smith seems to recall that Mr Obama also has connections with current American Vice President Dick Cheney. But Mr Smith's preference is still for Mr Obama to be the next Scottish President of the US.
