2:49. My Ghost 2 weeks ago told me to rewatch Patton. And rewatching Patton and then doing a deep dive on him and deepening my understanding of who he was . . . ah, yeah, yeah.  I'm  pretty much in a, "We're American.  Fuck you" mode.  I think everybody needs to rewatch Patton as a biased version of a man who understood just how important winning wars is not necessarily the bloodshed and that he understood that war was about winning it wasn't about killing it was about glory and honor and reasserting civilization and protecting the innocent and getting out of a crisis. Decisively and that's the way he fought across Europe and then he was restrained by political forces at the end the movie glosses over everything after the Battle of the Bulge to after the war and it's that first three months 1945 that are the most important.

4:23.  I think the most important years of patent where he and Eisenhower's friendship between World War I and World War II I believe that what we are seeing now, the Roosevelt's and the patents because Patton was American nobility Blue Blood family they had identified in Eisenhower a leader capable of all of the complex sophisticated, kind of like Trump.  And they we're setting up through the 1930s this removal of the British system as a warning to Eisenhower.  They killed his best friend who was a blue blood and just the same they tried to continue with the Kennedys and so they killed them.

5:27.  The Kennedys being Irish is there a lineage of any note? 

5:31.  Well but we have to look at with the Irish is that that's a mixing of people's you've got Scott's you've got Vikings and some of those Noble families and then you've got English as well so when you say anything you got to look that's there is a mixing of genetic peoples many of which go back to the Normans or Viking nobility and so even though you have and Irish family with an Irish name you have to look at their genetics and you have to look at their family lineage and often you'll find that they have a portion of their genetics that are Irish other than that they're either Scottish nobility Norman's that got their sometimes after 1066 or after Cromwell or they come from Viking nobility Scandinavian ability.

6:27.  Those nobility lines are they traced back are they of consequence does that lineage going so far back and diffuse is that relevant especially in the Kennedy's case?

6:49.  That depends on the mattress lineal side of the family how much do the mothers teach their daughters to love and Revere their family history and their family line because the mothers teach the sons from the moment they're born so when you look at Patton you look at you listen to his writings he very much understood his ancestry he very much recognized himself particularly in the American case but going all the way back to your question it really matters and this is my own family what the mother teaches their sons and daughters if the mother is the lineal side which is the one that generally goes Unbroken like Clint Eastwood is actually through his mother a descendant of the second or third is oldest American family Guy 1606
