Here's the full story. I guess the translator acted stupidly on this occasion. I heard another report on the radio this morning that Clinton made an apology for the shrill tone of her remarks. I was thinking: if I was the student, I'd be a little disappointed that I didn't get a "beer summit" out of the deal, you know, kicking back with that powerful American babe at a local bar during happy hour to have a big laugh about the whole thing.
You can't blame an African translator, though, for confusing former President Clinton and President Obama. It's got to be somewhat mystifying since Clinton is the "First Black President" and Obama is the first African-American President.
