Barack Gets Jump Start on Eventual Presidency....

....by helping bring peace to the Niger Delta?

From MOTHERFUCKING REUTERS:

Rebels who have stepped up attacks on Nigeria's oil industry in the last month said on Sunday they were considering a ceasefire appeal by U.S. presidential hopeful Barack Obama.

The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) has launched five attacks on oil facilities in the Niger Delta since it resumed a campaign of violence in April, forcing Royal Dutch Shell to shut more than 164,000 barrels of oil per day (bpd).

"The MEND command is seriously considering a temporary ceasefire appeal by Senator Barack Obama. Obama is someone we respect and hold in high esteem," the militant group said in an e-mailed statement.

At this point, if you told me the man moonlights as Batman, I'd believe it.

I believe it. Obama is like the African god-king of peace: every african seems to be more concerned with him becoming us president than their own president. if he gets in, in some roundabout way i think that continent will be a much better place.

"I'm from California"
Default response: "What do you think of George Bush?"
African response: "What do you think of Barack Obama?"

strange: he seems too white only for... americans?
