..."We put Barack Obama in Your hands. "It is You who chooses leaders, help him in the elections so that he can win," prayed Reverend Samson Otieno, likening the contest between Obama and Republican candidate John McCain to the biblical duel between David and Goliath.

He can be president of Kenya!!!
I see it as being more like a Ness and Capone thing.
She can have him.
Her line of reasoning is , well, not.....
What's our opinion of Africans have to do with Obama and how is his being elected going to change that?
Yeah, I see it as David and Goliath too.
McCain is David & obama is Goliath, and with the God of Israel, McCain shall beat the evil giant. Praise to the Lord God Almighty! Victory in Jesus! The Lord of Host shall fight our Battle!

What’s the polling in Kenya?

Their prayers are wasted because ‘Allah’ is something dreamed up by the murderous pedophile, Mohammed.
Western Kenya prays for Obama ......
The funniest part is Obama is a West African.
American blacks are descended from East Africans beacsue that’s were the slaves were bought from

When he was in Chicago and she was in cancer treatment in NYC Sloan Kettering, he never visited.
When she returned to Hawaii and died, he did not visit.
Payback is a beotch.

Um, I don’t think they are praying to Jehovah, God of the Bible, the true and living God.
allah, perhaps?
