Barack Obama and African root

President-elect Barack Obama.We have all heard stories about those few magical transformative moments in African-American history, extraordinary ritual occasions through which the geographically and socially diverse black community—a nation within a nation, really—molds itself into one united body, determined to achieve one great social purpose and to bear witness to the process by which this grand achievement occurs.

The first time was New Year's Day in 1863, when tens of thousands of black people huddled together all over the North waiting to see if Abraham Lincoln would sign the Emancipation Proclamation. The second was the night of June 22, 1938, the storied rematch between Joe Louis and Max Schmeling, when black families and friends crowded around radios to listen and cheer as the Brown Bomber knocked out Schmeling in the first round. The third, of course, was Aug. 28, 1963, when the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. proclaimed to the world that he had a dream, in the shadow of a brooding Lincoln, peering down on the assembled throng, while those of us who couldn't be with him in Washington sat around our black-and-white television sets, bound together by King's melodious voice through our tears and with quickened-flesh.

But we have never seen anything like this. Nothing could have prepared any of us for the eruption (and, yes, that is the word) of spontaneous celebration that manifested itself in black homes, gathering places and the streets of our communities when Sen. Barack Obama was declared President-elect Obama. From Harlem to Harvard, from Maine to Hawaii—and even Alaska—from "the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire [to] Stone Mountain of Georgia," as Dr. King put it, each of us will always remember this moment, as will our children, whom we woke up to watch history being made.

Mt kilimanjoro is NOT in KENYA, It's in TANZANIA

[kutangar]

It is also thought that Mount Kilimanjaro oncebelonged to Kenya up until the division of the British empire in eastAfrica when the Queen of England altered the border of the two nations toaccommodate the mountain onto Tanzania. After that local history has itthat the presidents of the two nations agreed on a trade; MountKilimanjaro will be part of Kenya if Kenya hand over Mombasa to Tanzaniawhich did not happen as Kenya would loose strategic port and its secondargest city.

@RDW1455 Thank God he can trace his roots. White man took the priviledge away from some many others. I don't know of one white man that came from here. They came over here, built schools and taught lies. How more damming can this place be, Deceiver. Not only that, if they had not went to Japan, and Japan saw the weapons and ships, pearl harbor probably would not have been bombed. God puts who He wants on the throne.

@CynNichol President Obama didn't kill them, just like your forefathers left from killing in europe, and came to this country spreaded diseases everywhere they went, tricking and deceiving, and started more killing. Think on that. White europeans have spreaded some much hatred in this world, that they are the most hated people on this planet, think on that. Go back to your country, this is not your country.

@RDW1455 You are ignorant, if that is the case, all the white pres. are illegal. Whites come from europe, came over, took a country, and made themselves presidents. Wake up

[RDW1455]

From all I see in this video it substantiates that Barack hussein Obama was born in Kenya Africa as his grandmother claimed (said she was there when he was born in the Kenya hospital).

Even the president of Kenya celebrated his presidential win by proclaiming the town he was born in to be a national monument.

Obama was born in Kenya, raised, schooled and worshiped as a Muslim and now is an illegal alien who was elected as president of the United States by fraud.

Wake up Obama supporters.

boy this is stupid....trying to legitimize a devil.....

[CynNichol]

You left off the part about Obama and his cousin Raila Odinga. Odinga lost the election for President of Kenya, and in collaboration with Obama, killed over a thousand Christians this year in order to force the Kenyan government to take Odinga into its power structure as Prime Minister. This cutsie video mocks every Christian who lost their life. Death, deception, corruption... these are what Obama is really about.
