I had seen this mentioned before. But, amazingly, it won't make a bit of difference to those who have been mesmerized.

This is stale news. I think that you should get something fresh. It is not wrong to support another in Politics. I remember President Reagan coming to Jamaica to support one of the Candidate who was running Prime Minister in our country. We need to have a open mind and persons to stop accusing.

It's not that he campaigned for this man. It's that the trip was supposedly a "congressional delegation" of Obama. That would mean he was campaigning as a representative of the US government, which is a big problem. Also, the problem is the extreme views that this man Odinga has and the fact that his group encouraged violence and killing when they lost the election. And last, the fact that Odinga is linked strongly to radical Muslims, and even signed a contract with them saying if he was elected to office he will make Kenya a refuge for those terrorists. That is not only a matter of Obama supporting someone who supports terrorism (again), but also a matter of directly going against US policy (as US and Kenya have been working to keep terrorists OUT of Kenya), and while on a trip to the country as a congressional delegation.
These are very serious assertions, and there is enough evidence that they are true for us to INSIST that the election process stop until we can get all the truth from Senator Obama. I started out dismissing these accusations, especially the birth certificate. But the more information I find, the more I am deeply concerned about the possibility of Sen Obama's becoming President.
We can't let the fever we all feel for CHANGE, and even for the milestone of a part African American President, blind us to serious warnings of serious indiscretions in Obama's dealings and relationships.
All anyone is asking is for Sen Obama to sit down and open his life records for all to see and question, just as every other Presidential candidate has had to do.
If it is true that he has nothing to hide, then why doesn't he open up and allow the same intense scrutiny of his life and his records that Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates have always allowed. At this point, McCain had a similar issue with whether he would be considered a natural born citizen, but instead of hiding it, he put it all out on the table and let Congress decide in advance. Obama is hiding his. All three other candidates have allowed full public access to their medical records. Obama has NOT. He only gave a doctor's note stating that he is in good health. Obama will not even allow his Harvard school records to be made public. I mean, any reasonable person, who is not biased to the point of blindness, would be asking WHAT IS THIS MAN HIDING??? I honestly seriously hope he is not hiding anything bad, because if he is I think the damage to our nation even if found out before the election will be tremendous. But if he is hiding something, we have a right to know BEFORE the election, and even his supporters should be asking for that to happen at this point. If he has nothing to hide, then why doesn't he comply?

I would like to know one thing. Isn't Obama open enough he has written books which has outline his life so what more do you all want from this gentleman. Do you want him to tell lies on himself. One should always remember that nothing in Politics is true and there will always be some shady contracts with a President, Senator etc. What one should do is forgive and move on. Making a mountain out of a molestone will get one no way. All of these things that are coming up why you guys didn't do something in the primary. You all have the chance then but no one didn't used it. Now that you all see that there will be an African American in the precious house all of sudden there are allegations towards a thousand things.
The Primary was there to stop any misgiving but it was not utilized. So why now. A election should be called on November 4 and only God can stop it from happening.

He was there, he did support Odinga, and he did use taxpayer money to do so as a sitting US Senator.
His trip was a taxpayer funded fact finding mission which he used as an opportunity to interfere in Kenya's elections.
He actually campaigned for Odinga and and spoke against his opponent who did win the election.
The only way to pacify the violence from Odinga's supporters was for the president to give Odinga a position in the government and share power with him.
This is the kind of politics 0bama favors... and in case anyone hasn't heard... there have been threats of violence here if 0bama loses.... just like in Kenya.

Hmmmmm. Not sure that if it was true, that it constitutes a logan act viloation. If he was acting in official diplomatic capacity and representing the united states tgovernment and discussing policy and relations and offering official united states government support with out the express permission of the white houise, then it would be. but this doe not nessesarily seem to be the case this time. The allegatrion made by the iraqi foriegn minister and later disputed by Obama and the Iraqi defense minister would be an example of a logan act violation. But we have nothing to go on with that but the word of the Iraq foriegn minister.
Only once has anyone ever been prosecuted under this. It's a shame, because there have been several blatent and documented violations by several officials and citizens such as Nancy Pelosi, Jessie Jackson and Sean Penn, possibly even Jimmy Carter.

The Odinga claims have been long debunked. Why do you insist on spreading lies? This claim got the lowest rating on factchecker Politifact's "truth-o-meter": "pants on fire".

Clarus, as usual, you've missed the point. The link you provided, while very interesting, does NOT debunk the link I posted earlier or the Youtube video.
It says NOTHING about whether this was really a congressional delegation of Barack Obama, as asserted. It says NOTHING about Odinga's links to Islamic terrorists.
It just refers to the one email that was passed around, and that was obviously fake.

And you do realize that the source of all of the Odinga claims is that chain e-mail? Everything else is derived from it.

ClarusVisum,
Thanks for the comment.
So Clarus, you tell me, just how is it that Obama is seen here palling around with this man? A man who slaughters people who don't agree with him while they worship at their churches. Are you going to tell me that this is just some family gathering? Coincidence? You go to such lengths to try to protect your "messiah" but your "messiah" doesn't even care to try to be the least bit discreet about anything so here he is, in broad daylight, on the same stage as a terrorist! Even if there is no family connection, he was there in his senatorial capacity, campaigning for Odinga! Again, though, there is no sense in arguing with a "blinded by the Obamalite"!

Once again the haters of Obama is digging up things that are not necessary. I think you all need a lesson in Politics and then you will see that it is not wrong for another influential person to endorse candidate in another country. We are not living in the back to days and even in those days you would see Presidents from other countries support a prospective candidate. This has also been a history for America please go and check your records.
