NAIROBI, Kenya -- President Barack Obama told Kenyans on Sunday that their country is at a crossroads and urged them to "choose the path to progress" by continuing to root out corruption, confront terrorism and be more inclusive of women and girls.

Goes to a country struggling to build basic infrastructure, explains how they aren’t buggering each other enough.

Progressives — they are the people who want everyone to move AWAY from all of the culture, all of the tradition and all of the accumulated wisdom upon which a functioning society has been built.

Those certain people are Americans.

Talk to an African immigrant.
Their English is very good.
