Riots predicted if Messiah doesn't win

Sound familiar, Kenyans?

It has just been eluded to that if Obama doesn't win then there may be race riots here in a America. It makes a sane person who expects the peaceful transfer of power wonder if we are talking about some banana republic.

I mention Kenya because late last year there was close election, in which the incumbent president Mwai Kibaki narrowly defeated Raila Odinga. Odinga, it was reported, is a distant cousin of Barrack Obama. Obama went to Kenya to help campaign for him.

Odinga is described as "a flamboyant politician who hails from the minority Luo tribe and has won support from rural and urban voters after promising to share the wealth among all the people". Sound familiar?

When Odinga lost by 230,000 votes out of 8.9 million counted his party accused the government of "doctoring" the results. Odinga fanned the flames of anger stating that if the president was announced winner "it will do the biggest injustice to the people of this country." This was enough of a green light for the rioters to vent their rage.

Yes we see this as typical of elections in Africa but not in America. Recently we saw video on YouTube that showed young black men in military garb essentially paying allegiance to Obama.

What will the 2008 elections bring us? Seems like the choice is going to be Socialism or civil upheaval. I want neither.
