Barack Obama's Foreign Policy Experience

In a mere four years, Barack Obama has gone from an obscure Illinois Senator to, if the polls are accurate, the odds-on favorite to become the next President of the United States. An inspiring speaker, his slogan of "Hope and Change" has resonated with the American electorate.

"The flamboyant politician became popular...by promising to distribute the country's wealth more evenly."

The questions that have arisen revolve around his executive experience, foreign policy abilities and associations with persons of questionable character. He has deflected those questions, choosing instead to leave those questions unanswered. And yet, he has extensive foreign policy experience in the African nation of Kenya.

In 2006, as a member of the US Senate, Barack Obama campaigned for Raila Odinga in Kenya at taxpayers expense!

Now it is important to understand, Odinga is a cousin of Barack Obama, and a member of his father's tribe, so I suppose it would be natural for Obama to want to see the man elected President of Kenya. But, on the other hand...

Odinga is a Communist!

Odinga vowed to end Kenya's cooperation with the United States in The War on Terror!

Considering that Sen Obama is running for the highest office in the land, complete with a vow to protect and defend the United States from all enemies, domestic and foreign, is it really prudent for him to have campaigned for a Communist who has allied himself with the Muslim minority in his country against the United States?

"Our government will not be held at ransom to extradite Muslims to foreign lands!"

Odinga is a Communist!

And so is Obama.

What's "the other hand" here? Just one anti-American commie helping to get another anti-American commie get elected.

That you, me and everyone in the US who pays taxes got to pay for this little act of electoral "community organizing" disguised as a junket is a feature of The One's program, not a bug.

"NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — The mob struck in broad daylight Tuesday, setting fire to the church where hundreds of terrified people had taken refuge. Screams filled the air. Even children were burned alive.

Those caught trying to escape the flames — or helping rescue victims inside — were hunted down and hacked with machetes."

These were Odinga supporters murdering and burning their way across the countryside. The man Obama campaigned for.... and Obama wants to our be President!?

Question? When will Barry's cousin, whom he campaigned for, be tried at the Hague for crimes against humanity?

Thanks for getting the word out, David. Excellent piece.

Regards
