I think the author of that piece is a tin-hat wearing nutcase.
"Obama and Odinga share the same Luo heritage and history and has made it possible for them to share the same spotlight at this defining moment in Kenyan and American histories about hope and fear. Raila Odinga has, in his own words, a "close personal friendship" with Obama.
Wow, guilt by association. Hell why wait for a trial let's string him up now. Even worse, "Raila Odinga has, in his own words [linked]..." problem is the link is to an unsourced claim made by "The Midnight Sun" and its author "Aurora" who seems to be about as sane as Michael Rivero or that Rense idiot.

Since Odinga made the claim (alledgedly) it must be true. This is pure moonbat drivel, unsourced, without any context, and without any timeline provided.
A) Did Obama praise Odinga before or after the murders in Kenya?
B) Did Obama stay with Odinga before or after Odinga's followers rioted?
C) Did Odinga call for the riots, call for restraint, call for blood?
D) Is Odinga responsible for the actions of his tribal followers?
E) Elsewhere on his webpage, Aurora claims the New Hampshire vote was rigged, if his some of his readers decided to blow up one of Hillary's New Hampshire election headquarters, would Aurora be to blame?
Now is Odinga a bad actor?...I wouldn't doubt it, most African tribal leaders appear to be. Would I vote for Obama?...doubtful, I disagree with his socialist, pacifist agenda. Am I inclined to believe the paranoid rambling narrative of some nutcase who doesn't even have the guts to publish under his own name? Not bloody likely.

God presumably gave you a brain...you might try using it for something beyond filling the space between your ears.

Yea, so? Al Qaeda has announced plans to kill President Bush while he is in the Middle East. Are we to then prevent him from going to visit over there?

Do you really think that they don't hate all of us already? Do you really believe what that idiot Ron Paul claims, that they will completely leave us alone if we only stop messing around with their lives?

We are in a War Against a Global Islamic Jihad, the goal of which is total control of the world and the imposition of a Muslim Caliphate. Am I supposed to quake in my boots just because the would want to kill Obama if he became President? Don't they already want to kill him...since he is appostate? Why didn't they kill him before he received Secret Service protection?

Why didn't they...ah...forget it. It's pointless to attempt rational discussion with folks like you.

Repubs making a huge mistake by skipping this part of the exam - which thus far; they have.

Meantime, the only truth of Media Matters are the lies it propagates by the name of Soros and the pen of Brock.

Daniel Pipes needs major and serious exposure - on Fox News and maybe guest on Glenn Beck - for CNN audiences. And Repubs need a weekend to find some backbone and perhaps Pipes - along with a few other 'seminar' leaders, could provide some.

Re Islamic law/dictums. . ."Were he elected president of the United States, this status, clearly, would have large potential implications for his relationship with the Muslim world."

More than likely; he would be challenged to return to his Faith. . .with full Islamic 'bore'. . .

It is incredible; while this aspect of Obama's candidacy has been 'touched' on; so little appreciation has been shown as to it's genuine implications here of a 'President' Obama. . .not to mention, 'Commander-in-Chief'.

OTOH: cannot say to much for the Repubs who refuse to acknowledge the truth of Obama - it's implications - and the truth of Hillary and the 'rats' et al.

These people are surely more threatening the 'bird flu'. . .or mad cow. . .or any other combinations of viral strains that manifest to threaten a population.

Their are voices of Reason warning us, of course and thankfully. . .but the Repubs; 'out there'; will not 'go there'. . .

Perhaps Fox News could ask the question in an interview. . .in a debate. . .sometime. . .someday. . .In another universe, perhaps.

Yes. ..a Church with 'white racist' inclinations and affiliations with Farrakhan don't help the color of the picture that emerges here. . .

But hey. . .that works for a Dem/Leftist; just as the totaltarian bent of Islam works.

Until just a couple of short years ago, he was a newbie in the Illinois Senate system. And now - leader of the free world?

This smells.

we have a system that allows the idiots to ask for votes
we have free choice so we decide,not them

and yes, all need severe examination,especially an aloof muslim/christian

The point is not that anyone who was ever a Muslim cannot be President, although I think that would be highly unlikely given we are in a war against basic Islamic doctrine. A child who changed and had new beliefs as an adult could and should be able to have a political career in the US.

The import is that Obama attempts to hide his Muslim past, just as he hides his white mother so he can gain black votes. He needs to confront it honestly, explain the evolution of his beliefs, and then examine the whole issue of apostasy and how that will affect his relations with countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Malaysia. American voters need to know the truth, and then decide if they want someone who prayed on his knees in a mosque until he was 10 as their President at this time in history. It might not be the right time. However, 30 years from now, if we win the war on terror, and there are millions of people in educated lands leaving the Muslim faith because it has become as discredited as Marxism and is seen as ridiculous, then there will be lots of good smart former Muslims around and some of them may even be born here and would make good Presidents.

It's the difference between making a first generation Japanese-American President in 1944 or today. Today, who cares? Japanese fascism is long gone and forgotten, and we don't worry about divided loyalties between any Japanese-American and Japan. But in 1944, could the country have trusted a Japanese-American to do the hard and brutal things necessary to win the war? Would we have wanted to take the chance?

For the same reason, do we want to take the chance that someone whose father and stepfather were Muslim, and who was raised among Muslims until adolescence, and who prayed with them, and was schooled by and with them, will do the things that we need to do to win the war on terror? Or will there be little voices and biases holding him back from doing the things that someone else, a hillbilly from Tennessee, or an Italian from New York, for example, would do?

The American people are entitled to understand all this background information and make their decision. Obama is trying to hide it. I'd prefer it came out in the general election, but we know Hillary will be relentless on this. And once out, we cannot allow political correctness to prevent us from getting to the truth so that we can make an informed decision whenever and if we get a chance to vote on Obama.

Your points are on a very elemental level--"don't you think they all want to kill us"...blah blah blah. Learn to think on a deeper level, and also, I recommend further study of history.

Frightening. We have one Jimmy Carter (Osama-bama) and one Clinton (Hildebeast) running in the Democrat Party and one more Clinton (Huckabee) running in the Republican Party.

Somebody please wake me up from this nightmare!!!

Go take your meds, put on your tin-hat and keep repeating your mantra; "Ron Paul can win." "Ron Paul is sane."

None of it's true, but you will feel better.
