Yes, really.....
NAIROBI, Feb 29 (Reuters) - Kenyan elders may impose a fine on U.S. presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, payable in livestock, after a photo of her rival Barack Obama in robes dragged their people into the race for the White House.
The picture, which appeared on a U.S. Web site, showed the Illinois senator in a white headdress and traditional Somali attire during a 2006 visit to Wajir in Kenya's remote northeast.
Obama has battled a whispering campaign by fringe elements who wrongly say he is Muslim and his aides accused Clinton's campaign of "the most shameful, offensive fear-mongering" after the photograph was published.
Wajir elders resolved to file an official complaint with the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi, dropping earlier plans to hold a protest after Friday prayers.
They said they would also convene a traditional Somali court to investigate the matter. It can impose fines that are payable in cattle, goats or camels.

One can't blame the Kenyans. Why would they want to be contaminated in any way with the likes of those two cretins?

"Obama has battled a whispering campaign by fringe elements who wrongly say he is Muslim"
A lie.
"and his aides accused Clinton's campaign of "the most shameful, offensive fear-mongering" after the photograph was published."
Really? Was a statement attached to the photo or was just the photo circulated?
