Mgombea wa raisi wa Marekani katika uchaguzi ujao, Senator Barack Obama wa Illinois, amewekwa chini ya ulinzi ya Secret Service. Kazi ya Secret Service ni kulinda watu wazito katika serikali ya Marekani kama Raisi na familia yake na makamu wake, na pia wagombea raisi lakini walioteuliwa na vyama vyao.
Obama bado hajateuliwa, hivyo ina maana kuwa lazima Secret Service wamepata habari kuwa maisha yake iko hatarini. Kama tunavyojua Obama ni mweusi na bado kuna wabaguzi hapa Marekani amabao wasingependa kuona mtu mweusi anashika uraisi. Ametokea kupendwa na watu wa kila rangi na kuna watu ambao hawafurahii kabisa! Tusisahau viongozi weusi waliouliwa na hao wabaguzi kama Martin Luther King Jr., na Medgar Evers.
Mungu amlinde na abariki Barack Obama!
Mungu amlinde na abariki Barack Obama!
