A photo of Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama wearing traditional Kenyan Garb in 2006 has turned up on the net today which has cause a controversial stir.
Barack seen here in this picture is seen wearing a turban and a wraparound white robe presented to him by elders in Wajir, in north-eastern Kenya. Barack’s father is Kenyan.
According to transworldnews.com Barack’s campaign manager David Plouffe immediately accused Clinton’s campaign of “the most shameful, offensive fear-mongering we’ve seen from either party in this election.”
Apparently the Clinton campaign did not comment on the distribution of the photo.
Hilary’s campaign manager Maggie Williams said that Obama campaign’s reaction was inflaming passions and distracting voters.
What is interesting is have these pictures been distributed in an attempt to bring down Barack’s popularity ahead of the crucial voting in Texas?
Do you think that the distribution of this picture will make any difference to Barack’s popularity?
Looks like politics is a dirty game when it comes to who will win.

This only goes to show that Obama will bring the world together. To me it brings more confidence than fear. Way to go OBAMA!!!
I always thought the Clintons were beyond contempt for many of their shenanigans, but this latest act probably “takes the cake”.
She can kiss that Veep slot goodbye!

AT LAST EVERYONE CAN FINALLY SEE THE TRUE OBAMA, THE SHEEP IN WOOL CLOTHING. PICTURES DO NOT LIE PEOPLE!!! HOW CAN EVERYONE WHO IS VOTING FOR THIS MUSLIM FORGET WHO ATTACKED THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ON 9/11? THIS IS ONLY ONE PHOTOGRAPH THAT HAS BEEN REVEALED AND ALREADY IS UPSETTING HIS PEOPLE. IF YOU HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE, THEN ONE PHOTO IS NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF, RIGHT? GO HOME OBAMA - WE DO NOT WANT YOU TO RUN “OUR” COUNTRY!!!
Despite the fact he is obviously being diplomatic by wearing the items presented to him by the elders - what makes being a Muslim so bad? It’s that kind of slur against people from different cultures that shows America needs a more open President.
its about time obama hussein barrack.!! ha ha!!!
Obama is wearing this outfit out of RESPECT! And a lot of people now-a-days are lacking that.He visited kenya and Kenyan elders wanted him to try it on. If you want you can also check out pictures of CLINTON in traditional head gear that is common in the middle east. Or picture of BUSH in traditional African clothing, but no one mentions those. Barack Obama is a good person, despite his NAME,or his SKIN COLOR! What if you woke up everday and had the WORLD was ridiculing you for your name or how you looked. Obama is an incredibly strong person! (And so is Clinton)People should stop attacking people personally, because politics is JUST BUSINESS!!
