Well Kenya needs a lot of healing.
Let the Great Healer go there and make it all better.
The Kenyans want Obama as president of Kenya? Good, they can have him!
What a load of crap. Is the author going back to Kenya or will he live in the “racist” United States?
Obama will be our first 3rd world president — If elected
Dear Edwin:
Piss-off.
“(BHO) is married to a black woman, he has black children, and he has worked in the black community. Can anyone get any blacker than that?”
Sure. Bill Clinton, America’s first black president. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The mulato marxist would do fine in Kenya. He could be their version of Bob Mugabe. They could even rename the country Obamastan.
I find it fascinating that some Kenyans have apparently independently developed some of the same stereotypes about “African-Americans” that exist over here. Squaring these products of affirmative action (the Obamas) with industrious, hard-working Africans over here makes my head hurt, though.
Did you forget that the Chinese funded Clinton’s campaign???
McCain and the RNC are going to have their hands full vs. the BHO $$ machine. They can just do it without me - I have a reliably conservative Congresscritter (maybe the last one on earth??) who I’ll support.
And yet millions of Americans have always felt they have had the right to contribute money to Sinn Fein for decades, and still do...
Yes, if Kenyans could vote in U.S. elections, the U.S. would be in the mess Kenya is in.
Obama: The Kenya Connection....
No....b. HUSSEIN and the muzzie connections!!!!
Sorry, only Mexicans get to vote in U.S. elections.
“Adebayo adds that the way universities use Africans to count in meeting affirmative action quotas for African-Americans has also deepened the conflict between Africans and African-Americans.”
This one leaves me scratching my head. So, US blacks don’t feel African immigrants are black enough or minority enough?
I also note that this article makes no mention of his militant Mohammedan half brother...
I’ve been desperately worried that BO wasn’t “black enough.” Now my mind is at rest.
With all due respect to all concerned, the article is a piece of propogandist bull crap. The writer is covering Barrack bin laden Odinga’s backside. Read the online European newspaper articles on the cousin Raila(sic) Odinga and his real connection to Sambo bin laden Obama.

. . . which pretty much disposes of the issue of "racism," doesn't it!My experience in the 13 years I have lived in this country -- and I know I'm not alone -- is that many Americans of European descent warm up quickly when they find out that the black man standing in front of them is not an African-American.
The "racial tension" is actually a cultural one between descendants of black slaves and others. A whole lot of patronizing goes on both ways - and especially from descendants of black slaves to white Americans.
Thomas Sowell has pointed out that American descendants of black slaves consider black Jamaicans "black Jews" because of their cultural differences. Again, why would Jesse Jackson be happy with black Africans and black Jamaicans going around without a chip on their shoulder towards whites - and proving thereby that African American economic distinctiveness is not "racial" but cultural in origin.The comfort between Africans and American whites earns us dislike from some African-Americans, who see us not only as betrayers, but also collaborators in white America's refusal to provide the equal employment and education they have been fighting for. Adebayo adds that the way universities use Africans to count in meeting affirmative action quotas for African-Americans has also deepened the conflict between Africans and African-Americans.It seems to me that not enough African Americans ever get enough distance from the country to be able actually to discover America. We need a lot more Thomas Sowells - or, failing that, a few more post-1975 Elridge Cleavers.
