Barack Obama directly intervened in last December's presidential election in Kenya, supporting fellow Luo tribesman Raila Odinga's candidacy, despite an agreement Odinga signed to back radical Muslims, according to an explosive new book written by WND senior staff reporter Jerome R. Corsi.
In "The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality," Corsi footnotes and discusses two television news videos that fully document his charges.
The first video shows Obama's direct involvement in Kenyan politics to support Odinga, and the second video shows a press conference held by the Muslims who signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Odinga.
"There is nothing on the record to indicate Obama ever withdrew his support from Odinga," Corsi told WND, "even after Odinga signed the agreement with the Muslims in Kenya."
Corsi said that to the contrary, Obama "appears even today to be a direct and active supporter of Odinga, as Odinga himself frequently boasts."

Did anyone hear him say that in the interview? The tapes might be interesting.
Thee’s also a very interesting- while speculative- piece here:
~snip~
Odinga’s current party, the Orange Democratic Party, or ODM, is a leftist-socialist political party that stops short of being openly communist.

“When Obama decided to support Odinga, Corsi noted, Obama embraced the extreme left wing of Kenyan politics, going back to Raila Odinga’s father, Odinga Odinga, known as “Double-O,” who was overtly communistic during the presidency of Jomo Kenyatta.
Odinga’s current party, the Orange Democratic Party, or ODM, is a leftist-socialist political party that stops short of being openly communist.”
I guess the heavy leaning toward socialism ——> communism runs in Obama’s blood...
O-bam heralds a new economic frill,
It is based on a three-dollar bill.
Our money, says he, doesn’t look much like me,
But when I get elected it will!
This is not news to those of us on here who have followed Obama’s Muslim, Marxist and terrorist connections for the better part of the year. However, the more these facts are exposed if only on the internet, the more likelihood that some MSM reporter with the b*lls to ask questions will do so. But I’m not holding my breath.
SE MOM ... I think your link deserves its own post. How about it ...
Exactly- many of us are aware of Obama’s dubious connections - but this book and likely more info to come are important to get out there.
I agree. There can be no doubt now that Obama is an atheistic, anti-American, Muslim Communist. It is Very Important that Corsi’s book get as much publicity as possible so all Americans will know the truth about Obama.
>>>Orange Democratic Party
Would that be affiliated with the Soros backed Orange Revolution?
I thought of that too- and think it’s very provocative and intriguing reading- but it’s nearly all speculation. I hesitate for that reason- but it seemed important enough to at least pop up on this thread!
>>>The tapes might be interesting
Wouldn’t that be the video that is threaded into the WND site article from YouTube?
Thanks, SE Mom. I hope Corsi’s book is as helpful as his “Unfit For Command” and has the same effect on this campaign.
It’s worth going to the link and reading this whole story and listening to the two videos on the site as well.
It will be up to the pajamahideen to make it that important because you know darn well the sycophantic media whores in the DNC ‘big bed’ won’t report it!
I’ve said from day one that this whole Obama/Odinga thing is outrageous. How could he get a pass on this?
Absolutely jay-dropping amazing!
From the linked article ...
"Dukakis and Kerry essentially lost their elections before the Convention. And they were up 17-20 points against their Republican opponents. Obama leads McCain by 1 point currently. And, the worst McCain has done to him is said that Obama is nothing more than a celebrity candidate — which is true. Republicans just flat-out made stuff up about Dukakis and Kerry…but, we hate to admit, in the end they were right about those two. As bad as George W. Bush is, he’s still a better president than John Kerry would have been: in 2006, Kerry proved his stupidity by insulting his troops; in 2008, he proved his character by behaving the way he did in the primaries as an Obama surrogate. The Swift Boat Veterans were right about him — we truly hate admitting that, but it’s true. John Kerry is a terrible person and we are glad he was not elected president.
And the Swift Boat stuff was rehashed rumor and innuendo from decades ago, with stale photos of Kerry at unpatriotic rallies. Kerry, however, did not tour Kenya with his cousin, Raila Odinga, who is working to overthrow the US-backed government."
You are so right. That’s why WE have to drive what is FRONT and CENTER. :)
As soon as I can obtain a copy of Corsi’s book, I intend on reading it, making copious notes, and writing a ‘book report’ for an op-ed at FreeRepublic.
