and for those who think the t.v. show Scandal is something new, just something of some writers mind-fantasy, here is your true Scandal between a white american president and his black slave. as the writer of The Book of Ecclesiastes of The Holy Bible wrote long ago, ....there is nothing new under the sun.... so true where his words then, so true are they still today. The claim that Thomas Jefferson fathered children with Sally Hemings, a slave at Monticello, entered the public arena during Jeffersons first term as president, and it has remained a subject of discussion and disagreement for two centuries. Based on documentary, scientific, statistical, and oral history evidence, the Thomas Jefferson Foundation (TJF) Research Committee Report on Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings (January 2000) remains the most comprehensive analysis of this historical topic. Ten years later, TJF and most historians believe that, years after his wife’s death, Thomas Jefferson was the father of the six children of Sally Hemings mentioned in Jeffersons records, including Beverly, Harriet, Madison, and Eston Hemings.
