Yeap! No joke! Saw "Obama: The Musical" last night. Not bad, kinda funny. (Even when it wasn't supposed to be~) Just been blown away by how nuts everyone in Kenya is for Obama. Everywhere there's Obama t-shirts, bumper stickers & his face is plastered on the back of every bus in town. Even heard an Obama rap song coming from a club. But more than that, the entire country's still talking about him on the streets. Yesterday argued with one guy who claimed Obama wasn't American, he belonged to Kenya. This morning one woman recited Obama's ENTIRE acceptance speach to me! Didn't tell you, when the election results were announced, everyone in the room began crying! Most of these people were Kenyan & even Ugandan businessmen... all hugging each other & weeping like little babies. I cried watching them.
