What’s in a (Politician’s Middle) Name?

I guess we should just consider ourselves lucky that his name was not Hussein Ali, in which case we wouldn’t be “allowed” to use his name at all.

This debate is one of the dumbest I have seen in a long time. His name is his name. Using it may, or may not, mean anything but it is his name.

Meanwhile, he himself, seems to have graduated from Barry to Barack, so I would just assume that his own use of Hussein is not too far away, anyway.

I just wonder why Dems are not as proud of his middle name as they are of his color – which has been one of his only selling points. Identity politics (the only kind the Dems know) always brings up these sorts of ridiculous “dilemmas”.
