Obama actively campaigned in his native Kenya.
In fact, Obama designated a personal aide as his direct contact for the 2007 Kenyan presidential campaign of Raila Odinga, who later was appointed prime minister after his election loss was followed by widespread, deadly violence that destroyed or damaged 800 Christian churches.
Odinga called for protests over alleged voter fraud after losing the December 2007 general election. The resulting protest violence left an estimated 1,000 members of the dominant Kikuyu tribe in Kenya dead and an estimated 500,000 displaced from their homes.
The links between Obama and Odinga were documented by copies of two e-mails obtained by researcher Jerome Corsi, PhD, during his meetings in Kenya with various government officials and others.
Then Senator Obama pictured with Odinga.
Two emails discovered by researcher Corsi.
The e-mails, apparently sent by Obama himself, referenced the senator's aide, Mark Lippert. The e-mails were provided by an inside whistleblower in Kenya who fled Odinga's Orange Democratic political party and requested anonymity because of the danger of retaliation. The official who provided the e-mails asked for anonymity because Odinga's fellow Luo tribal members sometimes attacked Kibaki's supporters, who primarily are Kikuyu.
The e-mails, identified as coming from Obama's Senate office, are addressed to "railaaodinga" at a yahoo.com address.
One email from Obama, dated 22 December 2006, stated:
"I will kindly wish that all our correspondence [be] handled by Mr Mark Lippert. I have already instructed him. This will be for my own security both for now and in future."
As a last resort the document states that a strategy will be to incite racial and class warfare.
According to a Wall Street Journal article posted on the Obama campaign website, Lippert is double-dipping: in civilian life as Obama's chief foreign-policy adviser and in the military as a Lieutenant JG who is planning to serve as an intelligence officer for the Navy SEALS. Lippert previously worked at the State Department and at the Office of Naval Intelligence in Suitland, Md.
