American Election = National KENYAN Holiday

Due to the fact that Obama won the election in America, Kenya has declared a national holiday for tomorrow, Thursday, November 6. People have been so into our elections that you would think that they were voting. And thankfully they couldn't. It is very strange for me to see the reaction of Kenya in light of Obama. They have done so much to lift him up and put a positive light on him. Kenyans are celebrating, but what would they have done if he lost?! Here's a political cartoon that is in the paper here. Some places even held vigils all night praying for Obama and waiting to hear the results.
