BARAK VS. Barack.

An interesting E-mail exchange:

"I found something strange, but don’t know if it’s important or not. Barack is the ANGLICIZED, (WHITE,) version of Barak. obama Sr. never used the name “Barack.” I found a government document he wrote after he had already gone back to Kenya. His name was BARAK, not Barack. Every article now written about him contains the Anglicized version of his name because that is the name Barack Obama GAVE HIMSELF. It was NOT the name his father used."

propaganda leak - not that I would expect anything else from the source

Omwami points out that the elder Obama’s paper was primarily a harsh critique of the controversial 1965 government document known as Sessional Paper No. 10. Sessional Paper No. 10 rejected classic Karl Marx philosophies then embraced by the Soviet Union and some European countries, calling instead for a new type of socialism to be used specifically in Africa.

African socialism is where they drive their country into starvation, then beg for food from non socialist countries.

“Maybe it is better to have something perfunctorily done than none at all!” he concluded.

A perfect quote to use ... for the Obama Administration!!!
