Ati,snubbed? Bull****. He is the AMERICAN president. And Kenya is a s***hole with the politicians we have. If I were Obama,I would fly Mama Sarah to USA. And let the rest of Kenya rot. KENYANS have to help KENYA.

Obama has insulted no one.
By giving Kenya's political class the short thrift Obama is sending a strong message that as long as democracy is in short supply here,US will remain reluctant to deal with them.
This isnt a suprise at all as Obama has made it clear in the past that he will cast his lot with democrats.
That stance can only be read as positive for the larger Kenya in the long run.

PS
It is unfortunate to throw barbs at a community,for a community can never be on the wrong,individuals are.
In this case there are none.

@JKMwatha,

Yep,Kimanderu edited his initial post. I think he was not that serious but many here got overly sensitive,probably to overcompensate for their feelings.

I still insist that the US african policy is a joke.


I've noticed the youth in particular coming in to a workplace with a completely outsized notion of their own value and importance... just a thinly-veiled arrogance. May be the credit crunch induced recession is whats needed to remind us all about the value of hard work.... By Anonymous

@VVS

I agree africa is a joke but my point is if the US wants to meaningfully engage africa,then they need to get their hands dirty,the way they are doing in the middle east.

Norway is to give Kenya 3.5 B a year for the next 5 years to help in the Agenda 4 implementation,the funds are pegged on progress. Now thats what I mean by positive involvement,the Norwegians have thought about how they want to engage Kenya and offered us real help.

The US style of abandoning does not equate to any help.

Perhaps I saw this later and better - think kimanderu edited the bad parts. But I agree,the mulato who art in white house got to be sensitive of kenyans national pride. We may have 2 eggheads or whatever the number leading us,they are ours,we put them there by ballot and arrow,na tuliwazaa. Obama should go easy on us. He may need us 8 years later,and no guarantee that we shall have changed.

I used to get thoroughly pissed of with our collective errors in judgement during polls,but not any longer. I travelled a little bit. All governments in the world are run by crooks,only the media and the US president doesnt keep pointing out the crookedness at them. Obama,and everyone else got to concentrate on their stuff. We concentrate on ours.

I hate the self hate among some of us. We are the KENYANS,warts,RAO,UBAKS and all.

Tujivunie kuwa wakenya wenye mkia,no amount of self hate and condescesion by mulato will make us ... Moldovans.

If it looks clean,it keeps your pockets clean. I mean,look at the soil...

Obi-pole. Just get frustrated with the continous bleating about Obama. We need to get it thru aour skulls. Obama is the preseident of the USA not Kenya. We are lucky he came looking for his father otherwise we'd even have a more tenous claim to him than we do now.

He has a huge job just turning around the US economy. Lets wish him well,learn from his excellent life story (started from not having a father to being the first black man to rule the so-calle dgreat US) and start resolving Kenyan problems.

And quit whining...
