Is that close enough to Obama for you MATE?

Apparently Obama's cousin isn't a very nice fellow ether:


Barack Obama campaigns for opposition leader Raila Odinga
No. They're not cousains-from the same tribe but not blood relations; 'Barack Obama's paternal uncle denied any direct relation to Odinga, stating "Odinga's mother came from this area, so it is normal for us to talk about cousins. But he is not a blood relative'-source News | Africa - Reuters.com

Indeed, he's actually from a different social grouping from Obama-a different 'sub-tribe' if you will-and the links through the fact he comes from the same area as Obamas uncle (who Obama himself has little contact with).

I am a Socalist. It's a simple term, but dreadfully misunderstood by most people. Plain words those four, and yet they seem to offend so many. What do they say to you? Humanity, kindness, co-operation and a fundimental belief in the dignity of humanity lie behind them. They are more than just words. So whenever you hear them just think, and look back on our history with pride. I am an Socalist; a tradition from Tolpuddle to Bevan.
