I originally thought Kerry was trying to pronounce it with some ‘elitist’ formal pronunciation...

It took a while before I realized he was just too stupid to know who Genghis Kahn was.

In Mongolia it is written and pronounced Chinggas Khaan.
The airport in the capital of Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar, is the Chinggis Khaan International Airport.

The main square in the city is the Chinggis Khaan Square.

I saw this on a Josh Gates show and did some internet digging. It pained me to find that Teresa Hienz’s gigolo actually got something right.
I’m still scarred from the experience.

"He died when John Wayne portrayed him."

That film may have done in a lot of people:

John Wayne, Susan Hayward, and 90 other people developed cancer after filming “The Conqueror” near a nuclear testing site

“Genghis Khan was the “original historical gangster” (H.O.G). With his rule of violence and terror Khan controlled everywhere, and everything, between the Pacific Ocean and the Caspian Sea.”

False.

Chinggis Khan required only submission to his rule, and a very light 10% tax rate. He allowed freedom of religion, speech, arms, provided courts, etc. Extremely enlightened for the time.

The “terror” part came to cities that refused the bargain. He usually levelled them and killed all the men. With fair warning and all. As a man of his era, that was more than fair and normal.

Việt Nam apparently had no cases until August and got panicky when they had a few. I think there are still very few. The country is pretty sealed off, though. I can’t get there. I wish I had gone just before they closed up way back in the beginning.

The Kenyan fried his brain on weed, coke, man-crack and man-meat. All that has his brain so scrambled he can’t remember what year it is.

As for Teresa Heinz F’n Kerry, no telling. She married into the Heinz fortune when she married John Heinz in 1966. She’s 82 and has had breast cancer so I guess she’s kicking back somewhere.

It’s estimated that Khan directly fathered hundreds or up to thousands of kids. IMHO that’s what did it.
