I have seen no evidence that he has rejected his Kenyan citizenship.

Please provide your references.

I did. Kenya's Constitution says that Obama would have had to take specific positive action to keep his Kenyan citizenship. That action includes formally renouncing his US citizenship. There is no evidence that he has done any of the things required.

To the contrary, his active campaigning for Prime Minister Odinga establishes his split-allegiances.

What evidence do you have from a credible source that Obama campaigned for Odinga?

You might find this interesting.

The media has ignored stories about the relationship between the two men because there's no real evidence that one exists. But the story suggests that Obama campaigned for Odinga and funneled money to his campaign and that they're close allies. The story also subjects Odinga to the same sort of rumor that afflicts Obama: that despite Odinga's professed Christian faith (the Kenyan prime minister is an Anglican), the two men are conspiring to institute Muslim law ... in Kenya.

Yeah, you go with that, girl. He still has his British citizenship and is still has "attachments to the country" of Kenya:

The putative president

"What evidence do you have from a credible source that Obama campaigned for Odinga?

Why, The Washington Times, of course:

"Initially, Mr. Odinga was not the favored opposition candidate to stand in the 2007 election against President Mwai Kibaki, who was seeking his second term. However, he received a tremendous boost when Sen. Barack Obama arrived in Kenya in August 2006 to campaign on his behalf. Mr. Obama denies that supporting Mr. Odinga was the intention of his trip, but his actions and local media reports tell otherwise.

Mr. Odinga and Mr. Obama were nearly inseparable throughout Mr. Obama's six-day stay. The two traveled together throughout Kenya and Mr. Obama spoke on behalf of Mr. Odinga at numerous rallies. In contrast, Mr. Obama had only criticism for Kibaki. He lashed out against the Kenyan government shortly after meeting with the president on Aug. 25. "The [Kenyan] people have to suffer over corruption perpetrated by government officials," Mr. Obama announced.

"Kenyans are now yearning for change," he declared. The intent of Mr. Obama's remarks and actions was transparent to Kenyans - he was firmly behind Mr. Odinga. "

And, here is some glorious documentary video footage of Obama campaigning with Odinga:

Obama and Odinga Campaign in Kenya

Is that "credible" enough for you, or do you expect me to soil myself with the New York Times? Because, I can...

Now, can you truly say that you have the utmost confidence in Obama's ability to not side with Kenya and metaphorically push that red button if the Kenyan government were to "go nuclear" on America?

If so, then congratulations, you are calling Obama a heartless b****rd who will kill his own brothers and sisters without hesitation because of the actions of his own buddies in the Kenyan government---whom he helped put into power, all without the official blessings of the United States government.

Cheers
