- 'Which US President Is The Most Irish?'
As Joe Biden begins a four-day visit to the island of Ireland, we ask, which US president is the most Irish?
Presidents Biden, Obama, Reagan and Kennedy all have Irish ancestors who came to the United States in the 19th century.
However, the link between the Emerald Isle and America’s head of state goes back much further.

None are Irish, let alone "the most Irish". My great, great grandfather was German, but I've never gone around claiming to be remotely German.
why do you have to take everything so seriously? Your life must be such a bore and hardship. Does anyone like you?
That’s an American’s thing to make themselves up some remote relations to other nations
You Bombed our Chippy 🤣
That's because your normal and not American.
Jfk is Irish with no other roots you can’t change your roots
None of them, they weren't born there, my Dad was Irish born, and he hated Americans who called themselves Irish...
Same with 'Italian Americans', Purposely indulging in stereotypes that most REAL Italians are ashamed of.
In Britain the great, great grandchildren of just 1 baby which left Ireland in maybe even before the 1870's - & ever since all marriages were to English men & women - STILL call themselves Irish & have Names like Patrick, Mary, Brendan, Sean, Nadean(?), Elisha, Michael etc. And forever waffle on about the battle of the Boyne & evil British & Oliver Cromwell 😂
I am fortunate, as I am Welsh. Very few Americans try to claim to be Welsh Americans, partly because most of them do not even know where it is.
Many Irish and Scots Americans like to plug into the 'Celtic' roots, which amuses me immensely. There are six living Celtic Languages, Irish, Scots and Manx Gaelic, Breton, Cornish (sort of), and Welsh.
Half of ALL Celtic language speakers in the world, speak Welsh. It is the only Celtic Language not considered endangered by UNESCO. This is a country that has half the population of Ireland or Scotland, but has more native speakers of its own language than the Irish and Scots combined.....
@@alganhar1 I'm Scottish and it's insane the amount of American I see calling themselves ''Scotch American'', I don't think I've ever heard a Scot in my life refer to ourselves as ''Scotch'' and the worst part is they are always related to William Wallace or Robert The Bruce, a direct descendant, they apparently have stronger Scottish blood than us who live and work here. Recently, an American Tourist came locally to one of our castles asking how she can reclaim her family castle lmao
For me Americans lost that right after the war of independence as they fought against us although some fought with the Americans in 1776
I see the Alzheimer's awareness tour is going well so far
Yup! To Match the uk's Furlough 4.5 Billion Alzheimer's Tour!
Nasty lot how can you say such nasty things
Twice you've made this comment now
@@K.F.L Twice you have noticed, well done
@@Curbz2307 🤣🤣
Some relative of his left Ireland 300 year's ago and even he had an English surname and he thinks he's Irish....my arse
His ancestors were English, they lived in West Sussex.
They even celebrate St George's day there. It's nothing like the rest of England.
Biden as is as Irish as Chicken Korma
Cracker!
Aahhh yes. must be from the O' korma..! Of donegal😊
And this my friends is where the term “Plastic Paddy,” comes from.
Like all 'Irish-Americans' he is not a bit Irish. It is strange Americans can't just be American rather that hang on to some vague connection with a country their distant ancestors came from.
The tradition of identifying with incredibly distant ancestry is important to Americans because there is no American culture, as such. America as we know it was founded by immigrants, is a young country, and so people lack any sense of historic roots. Hence the reasons why you might hear an American saying something like "I'm Irish. My great, great uncle's second cousin was born in Dublin, see."
@@arturobandini4078 well said... buddy here trying to project his own values
It’s because they don’t think other nations exist. To say “I am Irish” when they know they’re American - they must think Ireland isn’t actually a nation where people are born 😂
Do I count as just a little irish if my grandfather was born there?
So Liverpool isn't Liverpool because of the Irish?
Since when was “Irish” a personality trait and not a nationality?
It's also an ethnicity
Lack of culture results in them needing to steal someone else's
A personality and a heritage highly sought after
It’s funny because half of London, Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool have more Irish ancestors than Biden but call themselves English. 😂
If they are born in England they will be English. Doesn’t matter whether their parents are Irish or not
@@tomsmith5782English by birth, Irish by blood
@@JJaqn05 I’ve known people with Irish parents that were born in England and you wouldn’t realise they had any Irish in them. It’s about where your born and raised more than blood
2000 years ago I have some Roman , as well as Viking .. does that mean I’m Italian or Norwegian or English ?
@@JJaqn05didn’t the Irish come from England and or the vikings and romans too?
Better question, who cares?
Irish Americans I guess? Other than that can't say.
Why are u watching the video if u don’t care
It's slightly interesting
Joe is definitely the most backward
Does not say much for the Americans that elected a presidential candidate that was obviously in the throws of mental decline.
I believe Bidens last relative to be born and live in Ireland was about 200 years ago🤣
It was probably his father, Biden looks like he's pushing on at least a century and a half
Yeah they the short end of the shaft lol they got caught sniffing people's hair and put on the boat 🚢 🤣 😮
Half of his ancestors are from Kent 😂
Creepy Joe Bidet is a kent.
Saint Patrick had more Irish in him than Biden 😂
St Patrick was a true born Welshman. :P
@@alganhar1 Exactly 🤣
@@alganhar1he was roman Brit no Welsh blood in him
Joe will probably recall he was in Singapore tommorow
Eejit
Barrach O’bama is the most Irish
Yes you’re right, he has an irish surname, beginning with the O’ like O’Leary O’Brien O’Neil.
Really ?? He doesn’t look it .
None they are all Amerimutts deal with it
The Clown show continues unabated.🙄🤡
Not like the Yanks to stick their nose in to other peoples business
Do a DNA test - most white Americans DNA come back as majority British, due to British involvement in Ireland, everyone in the British isles is mixed between the nations, just because your ancestor lived on a land doesn’t change your DNA, where did they come from before they lived in Ireland and why? They could very well have been English settlers.
Very doubtful they were English settlers going by surnames. Jfk was fully Irish all of his great grandparents were Irish immigrants no other heritage
None of them, ancestry doesn’t give you a nationality.
None of them are Irish, silly yanks think they are Irish cus they have 1% Irish blood, if you live and work in Ireland you are an Irish Worker, simple as that
Living and working in Ireland does not make you Irish. Would a Somali that arrives yesterday be Irish? of course not and never could be.
@@danke1150 It makes you an Irish worker absolutely. We are all African really. Your analogy is flawed because that's also like saying if a CEO goes to Ireland for a 1 day work meeting, he is therefore Irish. Which is clearly not what I mean.
@@danke1150 So you say they never could be even after several generations have lived and died in Ireland? Again I would point that therefore that means there is no such thing as being Irish as it was not always populated by humans.
@@spartangobbles The Irish are a distinct ethnic group.
No amount of time living and working in Ireland can change what you are.
Could an Englishman become Japanese?
Jared Taylor is a White man born and raised in Japan and yet he will never be Japanese, and he's a famous White Nationalist.
You're just too concerned with being perceived as racist that you're denying observable reality.
We're different.
See how many pints of Guinness he can handle before he falls over, then ask how Irish he claims to be!
He doesn't need a pint of Guinness to fall over !!!!!😂😂😂
Don’t insult the Irish!!!!
None of them would have qualified for an Irish Passport, apart from Protestant Andrew Jackson, who almost certainly wouldn't have wanted one! The Irish heritage thing is basically an internal US electoral matter that Ireland has very cleverly taken full advantage of. It is a bit like the "Irish" pub, which was based on pre-independence British legislation, or the "Emerald Isle" image. Ireland seems no greener than the rest of the British Isles. And isn't Guinness just another, albeit in my opinion better, stout - a type of beer that originated in London? Ireland is on a brilliant PR and marketing roll, but it often has questionable substance.
Here he goes I’m a. Irish American trucker stroke oil worker and miner 🗑🤡🤡🤡🤣
None! I know he’s a bit lost, even in his home country, but his ancestors were landowners… not sure what any did for Ireland
Embarrassing
Well we in England are not all Irish ok and we don't care about it's politics
None of them are Irish they carry USA passports .Which makes them American .
Plastic Paddy's.
None of them are Irish. They are American; they gave up Irish citizenship when they or their ancestors became US citizens. The best they can claim is that their great great whatevers were Irish.
I mean potatoes are pretty popular in Ireland…
I wouldn’t he surprised if Biden grew up in Ireland, literally - out from the soil.
Oh shut up.
You mean like a potato ? Well let's face reality here, Biden is a vegetable for the most part anyway......jus sayin.....
Barack Obama wouldn't look out of place in Dublin these days.
If the Irish love their country so much why do so many leave
A plant handing a plant a plant.
None of them are Irish they are American .
The mainstream media is just embarrassing.
None of them. Were they born in Ireland? No. So are they Irish? No.
None of them they are American.
I thought he had family from Sussex?
He does, Harry is related to him 😂😂😂😂
Anyone who left Ireland for another country left their Irishness behind. They left us in our worst times and abandoned us to our fate. They have no respect when they visit Ireland and claim to be Irish! 🙄
There is probably just as much English, Scottish, Welsh, French, Dutch, Italian, German etc ancestry in US Presidents as there is Irish, if not more so. Not really relevant. V

Which Irish leader is actually Irish -even Irish first leader Eamon de Valera was a Cuban American and there have been so many cowboy politicians in Ireland in recent years they have had enough of cowboys and chosen an Indian just as we have in the UK.
Choosing an Indian leader solves your problems?
We in the UK did not chose Rishi Sunak that was the parliamentary Tory party. The party went collectively doolally. He did not lead the Tory party in to an election win. That was Boris aka Bozo Johnson.
@@donaldboughton8686 True, but his constituents weren't fussed. As for the party, what is it with madness nowadays?
@@donaldboughton8686 well same in Ireland -the political party chose the Cuban American de Valera and the Indian Varadcar..In both recent cases they have replaced cowboys by an Indian -we also in the UK have tried the cowboys -let's see if the Indians are better !!!
Che Guevara was half Irish. 🙂
none of them, they have all been American. America really needs to get a grip when it comes to this stuff
None of them because they’re American.
He's as English as he is Irish...
He isn’t tho he only has one line going back to England and the rest are Irish. He’s not the most Irish president that’s jfk all his great grandparents came from Ireland
Why are all Americans obsessed with being something else usually Irish or Italian. I find it strange.
Irish-American party donations.
He ain’t no Irish man fuckin jokin me
none??
Trumps Mother is Scottish so that makes Trump Celtic 🏴🇮🇪 🏴
None of them are Irish at all, they're American
wow we have all relations in Ireland .
Creepy Joe Bidet is NOT Irish! He has distant Irish ancestry, that's all!
@JonDove-i1l He does speak gibberish.
Cringe
Not many, they’ve all been English.
well none of them they're all Americans
pretty sure woodrow wilson was the son or grandson of a protestant minister from omagh and mr s. grant had ulster blood too
All plastic paddy’s 😂
This is BS,
"Henry", "William Henry Biden"
Birthdate: December 20, 1787
Birthplace: Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, England (United Kingdom)
Death: November 24, 1849 (61)
Baltimore, Maryland, United States
President Andrew Jacksons family came from.
Birthplace: Eccleston, Lancashire, England (United Kingdom)
Death: 1711 (82-91)
They went to America via Northern Ireland, but they were English.
There's only one President who was genuinely Irish and that was JFK who was a complete Anglophile, with a great love of England.
Joe isn’t Irish he’s American
According to the song...Barack Obama
Joe Biden's earliest ancestor came from West Sussex which the last time I looked was in England.
But 10 of his 16 great great grandparents where born in Ireland. 1 was born in Sussex and moved to Maryland. Joe was born in cuckooland
I would say Biden is the president that is the most Irish because he does talk gibberish that nobody understands 😅😂
None of them? They may be of Irish descent but none of them are actually Irish. Descent does not mean you belong to that nation, it merely means you are descended from people who came from that nation.
Biden, like the vast majority of Irish Americans is American.
Cymru am byth.
Nation comes from the latin natio meaning a race of people. Descent is what makes someone Irish, not citizenship.
@@danke1150 Sorry, but language changes over time. Descent means nothing if you do not retain the language, the culture. The Romans themselves knew that well enough and actively encouraged people to Latinise.
Just because a word has a root in something does not mean it has precisely that meaning any more. I have some Spanish blood in me due to a family dalliance with a shipwrecked Spanish sailor washed up after the Spanish Armada, but I do not try to call myself Spanish Welsh.
Such a thing is simply ridiculous. Its fine to be proud of your ancestry, but your ancestry does NOT make you part of that Nation. You are part of the Nation your are a citizen of, whose language you speak, and whose culture is engrained in you.
@@alganhar1 Do you think Blacks can be Irish?
@@alganhar1 The Armada ffs? Bit too far back that. Dalliances may have occurred on more distant continents (or from them) since then. Embrace how interesting that can be, I say. Not like Gary Lineker, who can't seem to specify what he is, even when broaching the subject.
O'Bama. Look at his name
0 because 0 are from Ireland
@JonDove-i1l exactly they are american settlers and they need to just accept that
Pitty Leo didn’t look after the Irish
There can't be an IRISH president in AMERICA.IRISHMAN 🇮🇪🇺🇸
I don't consider Indians, Pakistanis, blacks as British even if they were born in the UK.
None
Haha his dad is English.
Just another plastic paddy. Beejeezus.
And probably not one Irish DNA in his blood .
Kennedy for sure ❤❤❤
Isn’t it amazing - all these US presidents claiming Irish ancestry- yet none could bring the bitter struggles of ‘The troubles’ to a quick end .
Why do so many Americans have an obsession with being something other than American, is it not good enough being American?
My wife’s mother was English, one grandmother Irish the other Welsh, but I have never heard her say she was anything other than Scottish.
Which of the US presidents is the most free mason, i heard.
Uk news gave me the impression he had only flown in for a few hours 😂 some positive Biden news 📰
JFK
Dont ask Which US President Is The Most Irish? instead ask which one is most asleep?
26 US Presidents have been of Ulster-Scots decent, not Irish. Get it right!
Useless laughing haif president
C-3PO in human costume arrived. It's not safe to invite it now, when it's nearly expired end of his working period, and can make problems in the country after.
Ireland is Indo European
Thought he was from "cuckoo land"??
He doesn't know where he's from. He doesn't even know where he is from moment to moment. Maybe Ahlzeimers is a blessing in disguise, given the state of the World these days, and it probably won't be long till he pops his clogs in any case.....
What a lot of spherical objects! Don’t they know that we all one race, the human race! 🙌🙏
My ancestors were Norman can I be French then 😃
Never forget how the Americans treated the Irish immigrants as the signs always said no Irish allowed along with no blacks allowed. Irish were also treated as slaves but now the Irish throw out the red carpet for every yank who claims Irish ancestry
Stocks are good but I swapped and invested in Forex and Bitcoin trading I've been making good profit
Exactly!!
Forex and Bitcoin trading are profitable but with the help of an Expert
I just sold all my Stocks
Thinking of switching to either Forex or Bitcoin trading
@Lakeisha Reynolds I've been in such situation before and it wasn't an easy one
Wow !! I'm just shocked you mentioned Expert Robert , thought I'm the only one trading with him.
I stumbled upon one of his clients testimonies and I decided to try him out...I’m expecting my third cash out in 1week
Michelle Obama has irish ancestry.

Biden, a son of Ireland - the Irish must be so proud.
We're not. He's American.
A son of landowners
@@theastonvillaseal585 Silence peasant
Proud of the worse president in modern history ?
@@davidbow7381 He is of both Irish and English heritage.
when you realise that you are more Irish than Joe Biden hahaha.
This claiming to be 'other' nationalities appears to be an American peculiarity. If you are born in the US you are American. Irish is a nationality not an ethnicity. For example my mother IS Irish, but I was born and raised in England. That makes me English or British. I've taken the ancestry DNA test, and despite 75% of my DNA being from Irish antecedents it doesn't make me Irish. I was not born in Ireland, nor have I emigrated to Ireland. I have not lived in Ireland, nor do I claim to understand the Irish way of life. People of the USA you are not anything like your ancestors. You are not Irish, French, Italian, German, Russian, English etc... You are American. End of. Stop looking backwards and start looking forwards!
Who is the least British prime minister of Britain? Oh! Bang on cue Rishi!
He must have thought Rishi was Boris's Indian manservant/driver?
