The Opinion of a Morocco Native: Obama Is an Arab

A Moroccan acquaintance of mine who loves Obama (and Clinton) while hating Bush (Bush a foutu la merde partout) — and who would probably part ways if we ever should start talking politics — said today that yesterday Obama had sent his best wishes to Muslims making a pilgrimage to the Mecca. That was followed by these sentences:
Tu sais qui c'est, Obama ? Obama, c'est un Arabe. Son père, il est, je ne sais quoi, sa mère c'est une Américaine, mais lui, c'est un Arabe.
Ny reply was that I was sure that a lot of Americans would agree…
