Obama`s Kenya village looks to US vote
Tuesday`s primaries did not clinch the Democratic nomination for either Obama or his main rival, Hillary Rodham Clinton — Obama won 13 States while Clinton took eight, plus American Samoa. Sarah Hussein Obama, who can usually be found working in her home or fields despite her 86 years, hosted excited friends and neighbours on plastic chairs in this sleepy village, where children trek alongside a red dirt road to school and villagers push bikes laden with maize and sugar cane to the market.
