When CNN did a documentary on Obama's ancestral home in Kenya immediately after his victory in IOWA, I said to myself "Oh my God!!!, these guys are playing the race card....!!!". Iowa sent out shock waves of volcanic proprotions and White America needed to be shocked out of it's "slumber" The documentary was carefully mastered to convict the "gullible" White Americans that voted Obama in Iowa and to scare the shit out of those who were planning to do same in New Hamphire. Why did CNN need to do such documentary? Obama had just won one primary with a long long way to go in the primaries trail?? Such a documentary would have been more apt if shown after Obama may have sewn up the Democratic Promaries race and gone ahead on to beat the Republican party candidate at the General Elections and is waiting to be sworn in as President. The CNN Documentary showed OBAMA's very Jet BLACK Kenyan cousins, uncles and Aunties (and you know how very jet Black Kenyans can be), it showed his father's grave ( to tell the Americans "..comon.. this man, obama, just recently got off the boat less than a generation ago...!) and a picture of Obama fraternising with his BLACK relatives when as a teenager he made his first trip to Kenya. The documentary suddenly shoved it back in the face of White America that "....this guy you are swooning over is a black man from Africa.....a Nigger!!!!" That must have scared the hell out of the voters in New Hampshire who ran back to the traditional candidate. When Schwazzeneger was standing for election as Governor of Carlifonia I never recalled that any news media do a documentary on his ancestral home in Austria?? Nor did any news media go to Greece to dig out MIke Dukakis ancestors when he stood as a presiduential hopeful years ago!!
America their America. let us see how the rest of the primaries would go. But with this race card it is doubtful that White America would ever allow the "Iowa mistake" to repeat itself....ever again!! Phew!!!
