Tay1Tube was correct about Barbara Pierce Bush and 'W' not being a direct descendant of 14th president Franklin Pierce... "Her ancestor Thomas Pierce, an early New England colonist, was also an ancestor of Franklin Pierce, the 14th president of the United States. She is a direct descendant, great-great-granddaughter, of James Pierce, Jr. who was a fourth cousin of President Franklin Pierce.[2]" from Wikipedia
I would stay away from the History Channel's version of "history." For example, Pierce's son, Bennie, was not decapitated as described here, just crushed. A minor point, perhaps, but overdramatizing history for the sake of ratings makes the entire program suspect.
The documentary on Franklin Pierce by Tom Krzywicki is much better. His youtube account is Bigt020. You can get copies of his documentary at the Franklin Pierce hhomestead in Hillsboro, NH. or I think on amazon. It's really good, and well worth it.
