Obama’s Half Brother Runs for Office in Kenya, Boasts of Direct Line to Washington

Malik Obama is running for a gubernatorial seat in the county of Siaya in the March 4 elections in Kenya. Why should people vote for him? “I can confidently say that I am the best placed candidate…by virtue of my second name alone, I have the connections to bring development to Siaya…. Why would my people settle for a local connection when they have a direct line to the White House?”

Unlearn the Propaganda!

    Obama means he has “the connections” to islamic terror and al quaeda via his bro in the WH. And ‘bring developments’ mean bring in sharia law – all courtesy of the king that americans crowned.

    Geeze Tom, I’m sure it’s only going to be a few billion US tax dollars between family, sheeeeesh.

    Sounds pretty shrewed — proof that electioneering strategy of Kenyans is no different than the Americans.

    You mean ‘shrewd’. I can only assume ‘shrewed’ has something to do with the small mouse like animal.

    whites will die out from low birth rates, intermarriage, immigration. you are too weak to resist.

    future belongs to blacks. your wealth, property, wives belong to blacks.

  • devo

    this belief is a joke. maybe in like 500 years we’ll all be like filipino or something. but your thought is along the same lines of ones like china invading the US. get past the navy first.

    I refuse to believe he’s a real Kenyan citizen. Where’s his birth certificate?

  • Sabrina Liukin

    That’s the most idiotic comment i’ve ever read. Yeah, and blacks will die out because of a lack of intelligence due to people like you, disease, and the fact that you continue to murder each other at a higher rate than any other race on the planet. I’m only being partially serious when I say this, but, it’s still only half as ignorant as you sound.

    What the hell is going on with the racewars in this thread?

    I hope we’ll all be half hispanic in 500 years. Then I’ll finally be able to dance. And also serenade women with a guitar.

    That’s what spanish men do, right? Dance and sing?

  • Sabrina Liukin

    I don’t know. There was no malicious intent in my comment (sorry if it came off that way). I was simply trying to show how absurd cassandra’s comment was by making a comment just as absurd or even more absurd but from another point of view. I wrote that comment at 2am so if it came off wrong I blame it 50% on me and 50% on the lack of sleep.

  • Franklin

    I fixed the typo. Thanks.

  • Jeremy

    Lack of sleep always makes me extremely grouchy as well.

    As for
    Obama’s brother, well….like any politician he’s just another parasite
    among a nest of them. I really wish people would stop thinking they need
    these insects to rule over them.

  • David Stewart

    Hey, maybe Barack and Malik can have a race. Let’ s see which government can ruin their country the quickest. Winner gets a one kazillion dollar coin to commemorate the hyperinflation of their respective country.

  • devo

    a bit racy ya, but i actually think thats quite a valid point to anyone saying the things cassandra is. they’ve been on a few posts now and its a stupid comment in every one.

  • AP

    Let’s be fair. Is there any particular reason to believe that this is not just Malik Obama attempting to sound impressive, rather than actual nepotism and/or corruption on Barack’s part?

    blacks will die out from all the abortions. They are killing their own.
