65. his "cousin" is a guy named Raila Odinga, who ran for Prez in Kenya

It is not known if they are cousins in the metaphorical sense or in blood, there are claims going both ways.

Regardless, Odinga is a self identified christian, but made a deal with the radical muslims in his country that he would institute sharia law (changing the kenyan constitution) in exchange for their support.

when he lost the election, he tried to over throw the government and tens of thousands died, hundreds of thousands were displaced.

Dick Morris was a campaign advisor

Barack, while TECHNICALLY he did not campaign FOR Odinga, did speak out about the human rights record of Odinga's opposition at Odinga rallies. It was so blatant that the Kenyan government lodged a complaint with the US State Dept that Barack was interfering with the internal politics of Kenya.

The other interesting thing to note is that there are allegations that Odinga's campaign was bankrolled by Quadaffi... nice, huh?


Here he is with Odinga giving a speech....






Oh, and yeah, this will come out.
