Mr. James Roosevelt, Jr. is the president and chief executive officer of Tufts Health Plan organization, located in Massachusetts State. According to a biography posted on the association?s official website, he currently serves as chief legal counsel for the Massachusetts Democratic Party and is co-chair of the Rules and By-laws Committee of the Democratic National Committee.

The conference of Anfa took place in the city of Casablanca in January 1943 between American President Franklin Roosevelt, Britain?s Prime Minister Winston Churchill and the French General de Gaulle. During the conference, the allies agreed on ?unconditional surrender? of the Axis power. President Roosevelt organized a dinner party in honor of the late Mohamed V, indicating America?s recognition of Morocco?s legitimate longing for independence.
