Obama's mother is white. You doing great drugs tonight, or what?<BR/><BR/>Finally, "Secondly, the Obama last name is African....only his middle name is Arabic...what does that tell you?"<BR/><BR/>It tells me you know nothing about the Luo tribe and the integrated Arabs who live within it.<BR/><BR/>The Luo tribe members proper show their heritage by taking on British surnames, also called "Christian names," such as Johnson.<BR/><BR/>Arabs integrated into the tribe, such as the senator's father and his ancestors, maintain their Arab identity by not taking on a British Christian name.<BR/><BR/>The reason the Luo tribe members take on British Christian names goes back to their days working under the Arabs from which Sen. Obama's father's side is descended.<BR/><BR/>As I reported in my original article about the senator, "Barack Obama: Washington Post, Chicago Tribune investigations confirm autobiography lies; now asking: Is "African-American" a lie too?" at http://kennethelamb.blogspot.com/2008/02/barak-obama-questions-about-ethnic.html , the Luo tribe and Sen. Obama's ancestors were among the last slave traders operating under a direct grant from Queen Victoria. In gratitude for their service to the queen in ridding southern Sudan of the Madhi insurgents in the late-1800s, they avoided the purges of indigenous tribes eliminated from what is called The Great White Plain - that refers to the whites who took land from indigenous tribes for their own use.<BR/><BR/>I hope you become better informed about African history, and the senator's ancestors.<BR/><BR/>And in particular, I hope you cease citing authors incorrectly as you did me in your error-filled post.<BR/>-30-Kenneth E.

I che...Kenneth, thanks for everything you're doing. I checked out a dailymail.co.uk article...<BR/><BR/>here: "A drunk and a bigot..."<BR/>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=431908&in_page_id=1770<BR/><BR/>What is interesting is the picture of his father. To the majority of Americans, his father is African, not Arab by appearance. <BR/><BR/>If you want to talk genetically, DNA links, then that is another subject entirely. But due to appearance, I think it is hard to get past. Certainly, we all knew he had arabic ancestory. That is a given from his name. What is not clear, due to our cultural ignorance, or racial ignorance, is how his father is considered so small a percentage of African by DNA.<BR/><BR/>regards, the information about his lying in his book does not surprise me, nor the church he attends, with the leaders hatred of all others except blacks, and his final nail in the coffin - blessings to Nation of Islam.<BR/><BR/>Any other politician would be out for such outrageous bigotry and hatred. Any other politician would be asked why they have not left such a hate-filled church.<BR/><BR/>MichaelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101273.post-30016479476398152822008-02-17T00:42:00.000-06:002008-02-17T00:42:00.000-06:00could you post Sen.

You shorthanded this in your article, and it leaves open the accuracy of your analysis. Thank you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
