A personal Kenyan note regarding Obama

Jump to Comments

This was sent to me from my friend Beryl. She is a 20-something young Kenyan woman. Just a different perspective…

For a couple of months now America was taken to a test and while the rest of world knew the answer they wanted, they still put America to test anyway.
I am amazed, at how highly America has performed.

I can almost hear the ‘enemy of America’ beg that i wanna be friends again and asking what do you need. Come to me and i will feed you, I will clothe you and i will listen to you when you need to talk to someone. I will be there for you.

I hope you know how much has been healed on behalf of Americans because of this. 
You should have seen us refusing to sleep because we were following the elections  and how excited we are. people even casted dummy polls for Obama and Mcain and to sum it up tomorrow Kenya has a public Holiday to celebrate the win.

I just hope that we kenyans learn to vote beyond our tribes and put good leaders to power to bring genuine change.
