One of the concerns being expressed regarding Obama's ties involves his connections to Kenyan political opposition leader Raila Odinga, links documented through Obama's attendance at public rallies where he spoke on behalf of Odinga.

That's because Odinga admitted to Christian leaders in Kenya a Memorandum of Understanding circulating on the Internet is not fake, but a document Odinga signed with Muslim leaders in Kenya.

According to Jack Wheeler, the author of a newsletter titled To the Point, the Memorandum of Understanding allegedly contains a pledge by Odinga to make Kenya an Islamic state by re-writing the constitution of Kenya within six months after Odinga takes office as president, to recognize the Islamic sharia as the ruling law of the land

Oh, isn't that special. And Odinga claims to be related to Obama too. That's certainly a new twist in American presidential politics, to be talking about Kenyan elections and Luo-Kikuyo tribal relations. And just when Kenya has blown up for the first time in 50 years.

Seriously, whatever Obama's current status as a Christian, it could be very dangerous to him if some of these Islamist nutcases take it into their heads that he's an apostate. It would be a sad irony indeed if the first serious black candidate for president was attacked not by a white racist, but an Islamist.
