Obama favored in his ancestral Kenyan village

KOGELO, Kenya At President Barack Obama's ancestral village in Kenya, witch doctor John Dimo tossed some shells, bones and other items to determine who will win Tuesday's election.

After throwing the objects like so many dice outside his hut in Kogelo village, Dimo, who says he is 105 years old, points to a white shell and declares: "Obama is very far ahead and is definitely going to win."

While pollsters in the U.S. are using interviews, statistical analysis and the technology to predict the outcome of the election in America - one that is expected to be close - Dimo uses techniques he learned from his father, and is confident of his predictions.

Half-brother Malik Obama said Sunday the family sees no reason why Obama shouldn't be elected for a second term. He was speaking during a sports tournament he organizes every year in honor of their late father, Barack Obama Sr.

Kenya: one of O’s 57 states.

I guess he was too busy to campaign there!

Amazing how popular Obama is in utterly inconsequential places. I hope that he gets plenty of time starting in 2013 to go touring them.

Also interesting how important this appears to the various media sources. Do I smell flop-sweat in the air for their beloved Obamessiah?

I’m somewhat surprised that AP ran this. For various reasons the MSM is very reluctant to run anything about Kenya this days, still less anything about Obama and Kenya. Notice that they have to repeat the “facts” about the connection in order to deflect the Birther issue (without mentioning it, of course).

AP must think that this witch doctor’s prediction will help Obama at the polls, or they wouldn’t run it. Maybe they think it cancels out the loss of the Washington home team, which has been highly predictive that the incumbent will lose the coming election.

Yep.

Even though the white shell won.

Ooooo, am I going to be in trouble for that or what?

Can we deport Barry and Moochie (and Moochie's mom) to 'ancestral Kenya', permanently, on November 7th?

I have stated over and over the last 2 years that the reason Obama hasn’t shown his birth certificate is because he doesn’t have one...He was born in a mud hut in this village in Kenya with a mid-wife and a witch doctor shaking bones over him...He has NO birth certificate....

The only way Obama can have Kenyan roots is if Frank Marshall Davis does.
