"What do these women have in common? Every one is directly descended from a president of the United States of America. Glamour gathered them together to ask what they think of politics&amp;amp;#8212;and this year&amp;amp;#8217;s candidates. Rachel Jackson, 20, a junior at the University of Tennessee, is the great-great-great-great-granddaughter of Andrew Jackson, our seventh president. On being a Jackson: &amp;amp;#8220;It&amp;amp;#8217;s pretty cool having a connection to the man on the $20 bill. Sometimes I almost forget, then I look at one, and I&amp;amp;#8217;m like, &amp;amp;#8216;I&amp;amp;#8217;m related to that guy!&amp;amp;#8217;&amp;amp;#8201;&amp;amp;#8221; Who she&amp;amp;#8217;s voting for: &amp;amp;#8220;Romney. I support his policies on health care and taxes. I think he&amp;amp;#8217;s more supportive of the middle class, which is where I fall economically.&amp;amp;#8221; Jacqueline Yurkoski, 19, a sophomore at Ohio State University, is the great-great-great-great-great-granddaughter of Thomas Jefferson, our third president, and his slave Sally Hemings. On being a Jefferson: &amp;amp;#8220;In high school, one of my teachers said he doubted Jefferson fathered Hemings&amp;amp;#8217; children. I laughed and said, &amp;amp;#8216;I wouldn&amp;amp;#8217;t be here if it weren&amp;amp;#8217;t for that relationship.&amp;amp;#8217; Our status has only recently been acknowledged by some historians, but my family has always known and celebrated it. I&amp;amp;#8217;m proud of my lineage.&amp;amp;#8221; Who she&amp;amp;#8217;s voting for: &amp;amp;#8220;Obama. The economy can&amp;amp;#8217;t be fixed overnight.&amp;amp;#8221; Jennie Eisenhower, 34, an actress in Philadelphia, is the great-granddaughter of Dwight Eisenhower, our thirty-fourth president, and the granddaughter of Richard Nixon, our thirty-seventh. (Her mother, Julie Nixon, married Eisenhower&amp;amp;#8217;s grandson David.) On being a Nixon-Eisenhower: &amp;amp;#8220;I didn&amp;amp;#8217;t want to bring shame to my family, because of my grandfather&amp;amp;#8217;s resignation. I wouldn&amp;amp;#8217;t even drink at parties in high school.&amp;amp;#8221; On politics: &amp;amp;#8220;I think if my great-grandfather or grandfather were here today, they&amp;amp;#8212;both Republicans&amp;amp;#8212;would identify more with the Democratic Party. My grandfather wanted universal health care; he was one of the first presidents to propose it.&amp;amp;#8221; Who she&amp;amp;#8217;s voting for: &amp;amp;#8220;Obama. I&amp;amp;#8217;m pro&amp;amp;#8211;gay marriage and pro-choice.&amp;amp;#8221; Next: A Hoover, a Monroe, and a Hayes &amp;amp;#187; What do these women have in common? Every one is directly descended from a president of the United States of America. Glamour gathered them together to ask what they think of politics&amp;amp;#8212;and this year&amp;amp;#8217;s candidates. Look, Washington: Republicans and Democrats can get along! This group hung out after our shoot at Fraunces Tavern, where George Washington said farewell to his troops after the Revolutionary War. Margaret Claire Hoover, 34, author and political analyst for CNN, is the great-granddaughter of Herbert Hoover, our thirty-first president. On being a Hoover: &amp;amp;#8220;I grew up being proud of the man I knew of, then felt silenced in school. Hoover was blamed for the Depression; his name became synonymous with bad times. What you don&amp;amp;#8217;t learn is that he saved millions of lives through food-relief efforts.&amp;amp;#8221; Who she&amp;amp;#8217;s voting for: &amp;amp;#8220;Romney. I think he will be effective at turning around the economy. I hope the country sees that.&amp;amp;#8221; Sarah Cohen, 32, manager of a nonprofit in New York City, is the great-great-great-great-granddaughter of James Monroe, our fifth president. On politics: &amp;amp;#8220;My dad&amp;amp;#8217;s Libertarian, my grandparents were Republicans, but my views are more liberal. I find our current political landscape frustrating; I wish everyone could grow up and get along.&amp;amp;#8221; Who she&amp;amp;#8217;s voting for: &amp;amp;#8220;Obama. I was inspired by his first campaign and how straightforward and honest he was. I still believe in his core values and integrity. I&amp;amp;#8217;m also a big believer in universal health care. It&amp;amp;#8217;s important for our country.&amp;amp;#8221; Elizabeth Hayes, 24, an executive recruiter in Washington, D.C., is the great-great-great-granddaughter of Rutherford B. Hayes, our nineteenth president. On politics: &amp;amp;#8220;There is too much division and aggressive partisanship. No one picks their battles; everyone battles every issue. I wish we could think of the country as a whole and work together.&amp;amp;#8221; Who she&amp;amp;#8217;s voting for: &amp;amp;#8220;Romney. Obama had a chance, but it didn&amp;amp;#8217;t work out. Romney has the business mind we need to fix the deficit.&amp;amp;#8221; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
