Secondly I never dreamed that this day would come. Obama and the voters in America have made history

Clearly haukunyita the joke, or maybe your comments are meant in jest. Kaka mega is really funny! I’m trying to look for the tribalism in that joke, and I swear I cannot see it.

@reason,

Why are you raining on Kenyans’ party.

We all know Obama is an American. He has never identified himself as anything else. But he is of Kenyan extraction. This he has never denied. So we are proud of his achievement. He is one of us, a first generation African American, who has family and friends right here in Kenya. He is a symbol of hope to many Kenyans, and I for one think it is really great how the Kenyan nation is rallying around his campaign as one.

As for us being dung, dirt or whatever else some may think, we can’t control or determine what others will think of us. But we can determine how we perceive ourselves. The story of Barrack Obama is testament to this.

Also, to say all Obama’s mom had was a Kenyan sperm donor, while a sensationalist and an “attractive” sound bite, is crass and ignorant. The couple were together for 2-3 years, after which Barack Snr left for Harvard and they drifted apart.

@reason, you really sound a bit negative. Lighten up, bwana. A son of Kenya is about to ascend to the helm in the US of A.

Allez Obama!!

Which scares me when celebrities start to be labeled global experts on serious matters like global poverty.

Reality check Obama’s mum had a Kenyan sperm donor.
Kenyans sorry to burst your bubble but Obama is only technically a Kenyan. I doubt he would pass a standard 4 Kenyan GHC test.He only met the dude once for a month when he was ten and has made a couple of trips to Kenya. I know white tourists who are more Kenyan than Obama.

I respect the man greatly and I hope he wins. but it’s stupid the way Kenyans are all giddy about him actually its pathetically ignorant.

We should leave the dude alone and if you have no clue on what it is to live in America while being black or have never even pandad a plane please refrain from talking based on ignorance.

Black people have been the underdog in America and therefore if they see one of their own within a chance of being president they will vote for Him irregardless of issues. If that surprises you, check up on your critical thinking skills.You can argue it should be about issues and not race but like I said if that surprises you are a not smart.

Kenyans should concentrate on the waki report and holding their leaders accountable.

Your opinions don’t matter they are insignificant, if that hurts your pride and you think I am mean its OK but it’s the truth.

You are africans including me a kenyan, but in the words of a UN colonel to africans in hotel rwanda

“You’re dirt. We think you’re dirt, … The West, all the superpowers … They think you’re dirt. They think you’re dung … You’re not even a nigger. You’re African.”

Of course that is not true I’m proud to be a Kenyan but lets focus our energies on building our country and let the west deal with their politics, do you think they care about your elections unless they make the evening news because as usual a bunch of peasant Africans are killing each other for the benefit of corrupt politicians.

So wacheni kimbelele obama si wenyu concentrate on Raila and Kibaki those are your great leaders.

Kenya is another sadder story all together.

CONGRATS!!!
