Kenyans!

[Anna]

You know about this time of year we get a lot of them around here. Exchange students mostly
trying to get a good education. They are exceptionally well mannered and polite.
Clean good looking kids with thier priorities in the right spot. Many of them say after they get through
school they want to return home to do things like sanitation or medical for thier villages.
And they have some amazing stories to tell about thier homeland. Very friendly and open to new
things and all of them ive met are good Christians and express thier love for Jesus.
They have all thier paperwork they didn't sneak in here, and they are never involved in crime.
They work part time jobs and are very responsible workers who are clean and sober all of the time.
So, what's Obamas deal because he is nothing like them not even close?
I asked one of them who sponsored him to come here and he said it was charitable organizations
all our government did was approve his entry visa. So what's the deal with the scum bag other
guys whose only claime to fame is thier food?

The difference, if your post is to be believed, is that you've met the folks you speak positively of, and (to some degree?) know them - but you've never met President Obama, and you don't know him. Plus, there are your ideological preferences...

All I said was they seem to be some very decent people. And they don't talk anything like you.
Or try to stir up trouble over a fairly benign conversation about them in comparison to someone
who says he is a Kenyan but was born here. If his story is to be believed and thus far nothing he has
ever said or done is believable. So is your defense of that Kenyan believable?
No I don't know Obama or ever met him and I wouldn't want too. Nor do I know or have ever met you and likewise with that sentiment. By the way nice avatar its so sailorish you must be an action
figure with the Kung Fu grip!

We have met him , he has altered our lives maybe more than any president has since WW2 . We know him and what he stands for . Actions speak louder than words.

My oppinion in the difference may be a person growing up in poverty and being very thankful for the oppurtunity provided to them. Instead of a person being handed everything in their life and having a sense of entitlement. I also believe racism plays a major role in it. The bitter black man/woman is more of an American trait from what I have viewed.
I interact with several hundred foreign nationals a year. Many from Africa. Everyone of the Africans I have met are as you've described. They just seem to be very decent people.

        It isn't poverty, it has never been poverty, it will never be poverty.
        some of the poorest who have to do washing in a bucket are very clean people.
        The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
         Blessings,

It is obviously a failure of his upbringing. He was raised by his white mother and his white grandmother who was a "typical white person". Those white devils suppressed and ruined his noble Kenyan characteristics. As usual it is whitey's fault.

While many of the low level people (average person living in villages) is religious, and good people.  The people in power are not.  They are corrupt, and in will always be corrupt.  The people have no way of removing them.  Their elections are rigged (Like out last election) and the same corrupt people are put back in power.  If someone makes too many waves they simply disappear.  Most Africian Countries are like that.  Crime is rampent, and wars pop-up all over the continent.
