A man who was born in France, who has lived there for the majority of his life, who married a French woman, whose children were born in France and grew up there, who has French citizenship - is French. The fact that he is also Jewish and Polish doesn’t make him not French. Whereas, a couple of Americans (who also happen to be Jewish), and who’ve never had any particular connection to France, are not French.


That's what they keep telling me. But no one around me believes it.


that would be more of a comment about who you choose to surround yourself with than any other factor.

lie down with dogs wake up with fleas as the saying goes
