Why has there never been an Italian-American President?

Oh, and I think the Sinema name is Dutch. Not that there aren't quite a few Mormon Italians in the West as well, just ask Mike Crap.

Indeed he wasn't; he was Dutch. Pure Dutch unlike the Roosevelts who are just Dutch in the male line. Not to mention, the only American president whose mother tongue wasn't English.

(being from a Northeastern state, having a last name that ends in a vowel, having olive skin and dark hair).

So you're saying, the only reasons some people are aware that Christie's mother is Italian is because he fits that description? If his father's English surname were Jones rather than Christie we wouldn't be aware of it?

His Huguenot policy is responsible for the demographic rise of England and Prussia, so yeah. All the evils of the 19th and 20th century, really.
