'''Kenya''', a former British colony in East Africa is famous for its majestic wildlife. The "Republic of Kenya" with a growing population of 38 million, shares borders with [[Ethiopia]], [[Somalia]], [[Tanzania]], [[Uganda]] and [[Sudan]]. Its coastline borders the [[Indian Ocean]]. Peace had prevailed since an uprising in the former British colony in the 1950s. A political crisis exploded into violence in early 2008, with a resolution finally reached in mid-April. Kenya faces herculean challenges, as the poor nation must deal with a fast-growing population, exploding slums and and diminishing available land. During the crisis Kenya's infrastructure suffered severe damage with countless houses, shops, businesses, factories and schools burned out, and the lucrative safari tourist business almost shut down. The crisis ignited long-standing ethnic grievances, which violently split the nation along ethnic lines.<ref> Jeffrey Gettleman, "Unity Cabinet Formed in Kenya, Ending Deadlock," [http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/14/world/africa/14kenya.html?_r=1&hp&oref=slogin  ''New York Times'' April 14, 2008]</ref>

It is sad that the African country is responsible for the birth of a President who will make America die because it has been poisoned with Marxism and radical ideas.  Obama must be impeached!
