Well, the daily ammount of calories someone needs is based off of what their body needs to run itself!. If you are bigger your body needs more "power" to run itself, so yes, they are able to consume more calories!. Skinny people dont have as much to run, so skinnier people need less!.
Just the opposite is true too, they are able to lose weight alot faster!.
I think 4000 calories for an obese person is a little high, but its definatly more than an average person!.
The downside is all the health risks!.
There is many exceptions to this though!.

Its true to an extent
It is because a bigger person ends up using more muscle and energy just to get off the couch, go to the store etc!. So they are burning more calories than a skinny person who is doing the exact same activities!.
That is why with a person needing to lose 100lbs vs a person needing to lose 25lbs, the person needing to lose 100 will seem like they are losing more!. (if put on the same diet and exercise)!.
