Obama Biden Romney and Ryan: Double Birth Orders

The Candidates Birth Order Affect

The race for President is now on with all the

participants selected. You may not know this

but in each of the Presidential elections after

Ronald Reagan defeated Jimmy Carter the

candidate with the higher birth order has always

won the election. Looking at each of the

candidate’s birth orders will allow you to unmask

their personalities and see their different

characteristics. It is also interesting that the

Presidential candidates choose Vice Presidential

running mates that closely match their own birth

orders.  

Double Birth Orders

A person will have a Double birth order when

they are separated from all other siblings by

four or more school years. When this happens

they add the Only birth order characteristics to

their number of birth. The larger the age interval

the greater the Only characteristics. This gives

them extra power as the Only child is the adult

in the room with lots of confidence growing up

in an adult world with his peers being adults not

children. Three of the four candidates have Double

birth orders. Looking at each candidate will give

you a new vision of who they really are.

Barack Hussein Obama Jr.

Born in 1961 he is six years older than his half

sister Maya Soetoro. At age 10 he left the family

to continue his education in Hawaii but shortly

thereafter he was joined by his mother and sister.

Because of the six year difference he will

demonstrate a Double birth order that is 60% an

Only child and 40% a number One.  These two

birth orders are very close as an Only child does

not become a Firstborn until another child is

added to the family. This birth order is very

confident with their own decisions and very

rarely will seek out advice from others. He is

a Super One, a high achiever and as a Firstborn

does not want to admit he is wrong. His closest

advisor is Valerie Jarrett, an Only birth order.

She has a superior birth order and is someone

he would go to for advice. One/Only’s have a

great deal of confidence and because they have

a younger sibling they can be more generational

in their appeal to the masses. Don’t look for any

change in direction from him.

Joe Biden

Obama’s presumed VP pick is the Firstborn of

four children. He, like Barack Obama did not feel

threatened by his younger sister. She has been at

his side through all the crises in his life and has

been the leader in all his campaigns.True to a

firstborn he is a high achiever, while growing up

he conquered a stuttering problem. Always the

leader of the “pack,” he demonstrated the firstborn

need to lead at an early age. His birth order makes

him want to be right at all times and not make

mistakes.  He has been known to make a gaff or two

but tries to cover it up with a little humor.  Expect the

same in this election.  As a Single birth order he does

not have the comfort level of the Double birth order

that carries the Only characteristics.  He will see

himself as the enforcer of the administrations policy

and be very direct in his approach. 

Willard Mitt Romney

Mitt is the fourth child in his family with the first two

girls and the third a brother, Scott six years older. This

gives Mitt the Double birth order of a Four/Only. It

is this birth order that is the most difficult to balance

because these two birth orders are the farthest apart.

A person with a Double birth order will move back

and forth between them showing two different

personalities. At a six year separation from his older

brother he is 60% an Only child and 40% a number

four. The Only side is the hard worker, adult and no

nonsense person willing and able to take on

responsibility. The Four personality is the baby in the

family that looks to others for help and wants work

to be fun.  This could be why Mitt is accused of

changing his mind. He is open to the ideas of others.

This is a characteristic not found in many politicians

as most are firstborns with little tolerance for the

opinion of others. There is no doubt that Mitt was

influenced by his father the former Governor of

Michigan who was a true number four birth order. 

When a number four realizes that life is hard and

you need to work, they really get it. Mitt seems a bit

stiff because all we have been seeing is his adult Only

side. When we see his Four side we will see his

playful characteristics. It is this Four side that allows

him to listen to his advisors, take their suggestions

and work with others.

Paul Ryan

Paul, like Mitt is the fourth born in his family. 

He has two older brothers and one older sister. 

There is a five year gap in age between his third

sibling and himself. This gives him the same

Double birth order as Mitt, both  Four/Only’s.

This is why he was the only real choice for VP

as he matched Mitt’s birth order. I stated in my

April 13^th blog he was the logical pick for running

mate. Mate is the word, as this matching of birth

orders is a “love at first sight” paring.  The

difference is that Paul is closer to a 50% Only

and 50% Four split.  He seems to show more of

the playfulness of the Fourth born as life should

be fun not work. This is why bow hunting, fishing

and his family are a big part of his spare time.  The

fourth born is one to speak without using double

talk. Like a child they say exactly what is on their

mind. This is a very different from the usual

political speech.  The four is not afraid of elders

as they had practice with older brothers and

sisters. The Only gives them more power to be

outspoken.Others notice because they speak

with respect and have a kid like approach. He

like Mitt has been able to juggle these two birth

orders. In Paul’s case, the death of his father at

age 16 impressed upon him that life was going

to be hard work. That is exactly how he has lived

his life.

Predictions

Here we have a campaign with three candidates

With Double birth orders.  This seems to give the

edge to Obama and Biden as they have the higher

birth orders. Romney and Ryan both have Only

characteristics but this part of their birth orders is

muted by the addition of the fourth birth order. 

Not that they are  not up for the fight, but they will

be respectful and appear non-confrontational.  They

should be better able to relate to the public by

speaking clearly about the issues and not getting

too emotional. Having almost identical birth orders

is a plus for they will energize each other and speak

with one voice. Barack and Joe will be more like

your oldest sibling and try to tell us what would be

best for us. Because of the complexity of the

electoral process it is difficult to pick the winner

of the electoral votes.  There is no question that

Mitt and Paul will take the majority of the popular

vote but will it be in the key states? This election

will be a nail biter come November.

The Baldwin Brothers and Sisters Their Birth Orders

                            Stephen      Billy      Alec       Daniel

                           Jane William Elizabeth Carol Daniel Stephen Alec

                     A Family of Six
                     It is not often that in a family four siblings

                     are in the entertainment business. Of the six

                     Baldwin children the four boys are actors but

                     their two sisters took a more traditional course.

                     Birth order is a tool to unmask personalities

                     and we will use it here to look at each member

                     of this family.

                     Elizabeth Baldwin Keachler #1

                     Born in 1955 she is the eldest of the children.

                     She carries the firstborn birth order.  With so

                     many brothers she would have a hard time

                     keeping her position and may have been

                     dethroned by brother Alec, the second born.

                     She must be a very nurturing firstborn having

                     six children of her own. She is married to a

                     landscaper but finds time to head Stephen

                     Baldwin’s Fan Club. He was the sixth born

                     and older sister is acting like a mother being

                     11yrs older. She probably played this role

                     while they were growing up.

                     Alec Baldwin #2

                     Alec could be the poster boy for a type of

                     number two birth order. Born in 1958 three

                     years younger than his older sister. True to

                     a second born he does not like to be told

                     what to do. His confrontations with reporters

                     is widely known. Outspoken about his liberal

                     political beliefs he does not back down, a trait

                     typical of second borns. He has had many

                     roles but comedy fits this birth order as it

                     makes fun of traditional roles in life. His

                     Capital One commercials and his role on 30

                     Rock showcase his humor. In marriage his

                     ideal match would be someone that has his

                     same birth order of that of his sisters. Sister

                     Elizabeth is a number one and Jane is a number

                      Five.  Five is a second level number One as

                      birth order starts over again after number

                      Four. His first wife Kim Basinger was a

                      Number Three birth order and the first girl in

                      her family. She would have understood Alec

                      as she has a number two brother. Alec would

                      find her difficult to understand since he did

                      not have a number three sister. His new wife,

                      Hilaria Thomas has an unknown birth order. 

                      Let’s hope she is a firstborn with a younger

                      brother. That would be Alec’s perfect match.

                       Daniel Baldwin #3

                       Daniel was born in 1960 two years younger than

                       Alec.  True to the Third-born, acting would come

                       naturally as he really understands people. Many

                       times third-borns get addicted to drugs or alcohol

                       as they are open and willing to try new things.

                       Unfortunately, they are easy prey to addiction.

                       Such is the case with Daniel who fits the

                       Third-born description of laughing on the outside

                        but crying on the inside. His personal life shows

                        the free sprit of the number three. He has four

                        children each with a different mother. Winning

                        the battle with addiction would stabilize his life.

                         William (Billy) Baldwin #4

                         Billy was born in 1963 Three years younger 
                         than older brother Daniel. The fourth child 
                         is the true baby in the family. In high school 
                         and college he was a varsity wrestler. Sports 
                         and games and having fun is what the 
                         number 4 is all about. Before becoming an 
                         actor, Billy worked as a male model for 
                         Calvin Klein. His brother Daniel says “all 
                         the girls liked Billy." Maybe this was 

                         the signal he put out that said “Help Me, I’m 

                         the baby." Brother Alec said that Billy was the 

                         peacemaker when everyone was “going at it 

                         pretty bad”.  Billy refers to himself as the “white 

                         sheep” in the family. He has been married only 

                         once to Chynna Phillips and they have three 

                         children. Chynna’s birth order is a mystery as 

                         she is one of eleven siblings of her father.  

                         Being part of a large family should be second 

                         nature for her, she would fit right in with the 

                         Baldwins.

                          Jane Sasso Baldwin #5

                          Born in 1965 she is two years younger than 

                          Billy. A number 5 starts the birth order 

                          sequence all over again. She is a second level 

                          #1.  This means the characteristics of a 

                          number 1 are softened with the number 5. 

                          She like her sister took a more conventional

                          path in life.  She is a physical therapist and 

                          her husband runs a car dealership.

                          Stephen Baldwin #6

                          Born in 1966 just one year younger than older 

                          sister Jane. As a number 6, he is in the 
                          second group of birth Orders. A #6 is a 
                          second level  #2. Similar to Alec but without 
                          the edge and more subtle.  All children 
                          want to be different. Stephen is a 
                          Republican, completely opposite from Alec  
                          who has campaigned for Democratic  
                          candidates. He is also a born again Christian  
                          something that happened right after 9/11. 
                          He attributes this to helping him kick the  
                          drug habit but being a second level number 
                          two and wanting to be in control of his own 
                          life certainly helped. As the youngest in 

                          the family he has said that their family was 

                          more like The Brady Bunch, but on crack.

                          End The Confusion

                          An interesting family there is not doubt. We 

                          can get a different perspective of the 

                          Baldwins by looking at their birth orders. 

                          When all four brothers are in the same 

                          profession, it is easy to confuse them. By 

                          understanding their birth orders you have a 

                          way to unmask their personalities. You can 

                          now recognized their differences.
