Well I mean we here in Bulgaria knew it since the discovery of 6000 year old gold in burial mounds (attributed to Thracians). Now that an American is saying it, perhaps others will beleive it too.

But it's a matter of European Pride, not bulgarian pride, with all the movements of tribes, cultures and people that happened since then you can hardly claim that modern bulgarians are descendants of that ancient culture. It's a European Heritage but we really didn't need anymore proof of our inherent superiority after we colonized and subdued the entire world and then forgave ourselves by releasing them out of the goodness of our hearts.
