Son Of A Goat-Herder

Barack Obama does not put the fear of God into conservatives quite like Hillary does. But the Republicans know they would need a charismatic candidate to take on a man with such a phenomenal life story — the son of a Kenyan goat-herder running to be the most powerful man on earth — and presence. ~James Forsyth

Only in America would the epithet “son of a Kenyan goat-herder” be considered a compliment and proof of someone’s inherent virtue and near-mythic stature.  Everywhere else, probably including Kenya, it would be a heavy-handed insult designed to put you in your place.
