His whole name is Arabic, not just the "Hussein" part.

That's true. But his middle name was the only one that was a red flag to his enemies and was emphasized by them during his run for the Presidency.
Looks like that ploy backfired.

Oh come on, it's not just that it is Arabic, it is that it is "Hussein." Before the advent of Barack Obama, who was the most famous person in the world to be called Hussein? Oh yeah, the tyrant we had spent a decade fighting and had just seen killed. Of course that nominal coincidence would cause a candidate some problems and the problems it caused Obama were plainly and rightly of the marginal variety.

I have a student named Aldopho...shall I blame him for the Holocaust?
I also has a student named Jesus....should I also call him the Son of God?
I have another student maned Amjhad....shall I worry if he is a terrorist?
I have a colleague named Mary...should I think of her as the Holy Virgin?
I have a best friend named John....should I have him baptize me?
I have another friend named Mark...shall I figure he is is an Apostle of Christ?
Such foolishness.

As I said, the problems caused to the President-elect by his name were plainly and rightly of the marginal variety. And tell your student Adolpho to stop hating Jews.

Did both Boney Maroni and Short Fat Fannie. Eclectic tastes.
RBS's other song is a lewd classic, and we're probably glad he stopped where he did.
