The Flap that was Generated by a Photograph of Presidential Candidate Barack Obama has Grown. There are Tribes in Kenya demanding a Formal Apology from the US!!!

This week has seen another Campaign Tactic Backfire on the Clinton Campaign. A Photograph of Senator Obama wearing Traditional Somali Garb surfaced on the Internet. According to the Drudge Report they received it from the Clinton Campaign.
 
When the question of the Picture came up in the Democratic Debate in Cleveland Senator Clinton denied any knowledge of the release of the Photograph. Senator Obama took Senator Clinton for Her word regarding the release and let the issue go away for the rest of the debate.
 
But in Kenya they are not buying into it............

This is the Picture that is at the Root of the Controversy

Members of the Tribe of the Late Senator's Father are Protesting the use of the Photograph in an attempt to smear the Candidate. So on Feb. 29th they held a Protest aganist the Use of the Photos.
 
However they are also planning on Holding the US Government Accountable as well. IF the US Government does not Apologize to them for this Incident then they are demanding that the US Forces currently Operating in the town of Garissa be Removed.
 
Currently there has Been No Comment from Either the State Department or the Kenyan Embassy in Washington.
