apart from that, sure.

Wernher von Braun was American?
Interesting.

He was born in Germany,
but he became a US citizen later

To many Americans, that doesn't really count.
To my mind, if you're not allowed to be President due to reasons of birth, you're not really American.

I'm definitely not African.
I don't have a bone though my nose.

How do you smell?

I just go around licking things.
I extrapolate odour from taste.

Race is a cultural construct? ?

Race is completely meaningless,
Go back far enough and we're all African - or whatever you want to call Africa at that time. Mitochondrial DNA proves it.

Generally, the more mixed people are the fewer genetic problems.
I've never understood the racial purity nonsense.

You would say that, mudblood, with your non existent midi-chlorians count.

"...and smaller fleas have smaller fleas and so ad infinitum".
Or something like that.

If you'd quoted Donne's effort on the same subject I'd have to have told you I'm not that kind of boy.

Siphonaptera is a rhyme by the mathematician Augustus De Morgan
Big fleas have little fleas upon their backs to bite 'em, And little fleas have lesser fleas, and so, ad infinitum. And the great fleas, themselves, in turn, have greater fleas to go on; While these again have greater still, and greater still, and so on.

Lehrer was quality
Anyone who does not know should go on a YouTube journey through his music

Yes. This so much.
I linked Poisoning Pigeons in the Park above, as I guess it's the most universally entertaining, but really it was quite tricky to pick one song to best represent his stuff.
New Math, Elements, The Vatican Rag, and I Got It From Agnes are also strong contenders!

National Brotherhood Week, Smut, Pollution
Still relevant and all these above were all knocked up quickly as part of the American That Was the Week That Was, I believe (can't be arsed to Google it). We got Millicent Martin, they got Tom Lehrer...

The great thing about him is he is still relevant.
The sad thing about the world is that he is still relevant.
