I'm afraid you've hit a funny little nuance in the law!. While the Obamas are considered public figures under "Sullivan v New York Times", her parents and grandparents are not!. No one can research them as long as they're alive without their cooperation!. They haven't chosen to give it, yet!. So we can't get information about her grandparents and great-grandparents until someone decides to release that information!. So far, they haven't released it to anyone for research!. Several people have even volunteered to do the research for free!. Mrs!. Obama's press secretary has declined the offers on her behalf!.

You may be able to find bits and pieces!. But privacy laws are on her family's side and they're doing their best to enforce it at this point!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Wikipedia furnishes the following information on Michelle Obama's family history that is either easily accessible or public knowledge:

Frasier (d!. 1990) and Marian Robinson raised two high achievers: Michelle (b!. Jan 17, 1964) and her 16-month older brother, Craig (b!. 1962)!. Her dad was a Chicago water plant employee, and her mother was a secretary for Spiegel Catalog!. Michelle grew up on the South Shore of Chicago, graduating from Whitney Young Magnet High School before graduating with honors with a major in sociology and a minor in African Studies from Princeton University (AB 1985) and then going on to earn a JD from Harvard Law School (1988)!.

Her brother, Craig, was the fourth leading scorer in Princeton University basketball history where he graduated with an AB in sociology in 1983!. He also holds an MBA from the University of Chicago's Graduate School of Business (1992) and worked as a bond trader at Continental Bank, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, and Loop Capital Markets before deciding to make a career change in 1999 and become a basketball coach!. A former Northwestern assistant coach (1999-2005) and Brown University men's head basketball coach (2006-2008), Craig Robinson is currently the men's basketball coach for the Oregon State Beavers!.

Michelle's parents were originally from the South, and many of her relatives still live in South Carolina!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There are 2 or 3 genealogical experts that found out Hilary Clinton and Angelina Jolie Pitt are related!. I think Madonna and Hilary Clinton are related!. Bush is a 9th cousin to John Kerry, do genealogical searches and use some of these names!. The ancestor of Angelina's was a French Huguenot, so dig around and you will probably find out the names of the researchers!. Since Obama is now the defacto Democratic nominee, the research has probably already started!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
