"Yes, Virginia, Sen. John McCain does have black relatives in Mississippi."
I found this video over at Politico. It appears that Sen. McCain ancestors owned some slaves in Oxford, Mississippi about 150 years ago and many of there descendants still live in area. The video is very interesting. However, family ties doesn't mean Sen. McCain is getting their votes.

I bet he has one or two of his own now. :-\
I saw this on CNN NEWS. The sad part is no one in the McCain camp has responded to the story. The woman even held up Joe's picture (the brotha)
SAD...
your right though that don't mean I am voting for you...and they NOT
Very interesting piece. I'd heard about the Black McCains, but not in any substance before.
