and what does that have to do with his skin color?What does Marfan syndrome have to do with his ancestry?
His haplogroup gene type indicates his ancestry.
The DNA of his ancestors/relatives and descendants has been identified by scientists
Joe thinking Lincoln was a black man, thats not how you do it :facepalm:

I don't think that can be excluded as a possibility though, @Blazor.
That Abraham Lincoln had African ancestry given the DNA analysis of his hair and blood.
It was traceable to the Horn of Africa and this has been verified by the best forensic scientists, geneticists and geneaologists in your country.
While he was alive, it was often rumored, particularly by his enemies, that Lincoln was at least partially Black.
Even if he were just partial, it's quite conceivable that he could have passed as 'White'.
ie - here's a governor who lived in the same decade as Lincoln:
His name was James Douglas and he was a governor of one of the territories in British North America. His mother was creole/mixed race and his Dad was White. But Douglas passed as 'White'. And from all appearances he could have as passed as an Englishman in the Victorian era. So, one or 2 generations removed, the 'Blackness' begins to disappear.
ie - Prince Harry's son, Archie:
...and this is Archie's Grandmother:
....so it didn't many generations for Archie to pass as 'White', did it?

Well, if you know how math works, you'd understand why. Even Markle's mother wasn't 100% black.

During Lincoln's Time, there was a controversy about his racial origins:
...so this discussion isn't exactly new.
You seem really invested in race.

I just think it's kinda interesting.
It may also shed light on why there was so much anti-slavery sentiment prior to the Civil War.
Perhaps many of the people whose cause the anti-slavers were fighting for were their children.
There was probably a lot of racial mixing in the United STates even back then.
For sure, there was in Canada as French trappers bred with Native women.
They created a new race called the metis.
