PS - So much for Obama's stupid claim that he was descended from an Egyptian king.
I mean, they were around 5,000 years ago, so there's a decent chance many of us are descended from Egyptian kings. Sure he's talking out of his arse, but it's like someone in Asia claiming to be descended from Genghis Khan: there's a decent chance of it being true.

A huge proportion of people in western Asia are descended from GK. I recall a number on the order of 30%, but that seems too high. I know it was a huge proportion.

An international group of geneticists studying Y-chromosome data have found that nearly 8 percent of the men living in the region of the former Mongol empire carry y-chromosomes that are nearly identical. That translates to 0.5 percent of the male population in the world, or roughly 16 million descendants living today.
Add another 8% for women would would have the same parentage = 16%
