name sake
Just notice this new supermarket springing up across the street from our gym. Wondering if Prez O knows that his name is being used. And if he will get a fee for the name use. The owner is smart by playing with the Chinese words of Prez O's name. Officially in Chinese he was know as 奥巴马 (I have put an image of the Chinese characters as an image so the English rendering computers can see them). In the picture, the Chinese characters are different, at least the first and last. (read them from left to right). All these Chinese characters have the same pinyin but can be of different characters. Registrations of a company here is more important in Chinese. I guess it passes the "mustard".
