A muggle-born would be someone of complete muggle heritage. Harry's parents 
are both wizards and therefore a pure-blood. Draco never calls Harry a 
mudblood only Hermione. He also never calls half-bloods mudbloods so they 
must just be considred half-blood.

Something just occured to me; Why doesn't Draco ever pick on Dean or 
Lavender? They are both muggle-born but he only ever picks on Hermione. 
Perhaps because she is a best friend of Harry Potter
