Much better

So does she get Kenyan Citizenship through her Father?

Comparing FLDS with Islam?

I can see that there are similarities.

Nope, just saying that under age issues aren't exclusive to Islam, no matter how bad you want it to be.

Confirmed. I know it's still the way things work in Christian families in rural Ethiopia. Girls are married off as soon as they hit double digit ages. 10-11 years old and they're brides.

Don't let Spooky see those sheep.

If we think that the suitor in the OP is extreme in his pursuit of a potential mate, this story (granted, older) might put it into perspective:

Sudan man forced to 'marry' goat

A Sudanese man has been forced to take a goat as his "wife", after he was caught having sex with the animal.

The goat's owner, Mr Alifi, said he surprised the man with his goat and took him to a council of elders.

They ordered the man, Mr Tombe, to pay a dowry of 15,000 Sudanese dinars ($50) to Mr Alifi.

"We have given him the goat, and as far as we know they are still together," Mr Alifi said.

Mr Alifi, Hai Malakal in Upper Nile State, told the Juba Post newspaper that he heard a loud noise around midnight on 13 February and immediately rushed outside to find Mr Tombe with his goat.

"When I asked him: 'What are you doing there?', he fell off the back of the goat, so I captured and tied him up".

Mr Alifi then called elders to decide how to deal with the case.

"They said I should not take him to the police, but rather let him pay a dowry for my goat because he used it as his wife," Mr Alifi told the newspaper.

Malia Obama is born in 1998 (17 this year).

So this Kiprono claims his love for Malia has been unconditional since 2008, when Malia was just 10 years old at that time?

Sounds like creepy paedophile to me.

OK - I'll bite.

I'll posit, instead, that it's the cultural norm there to start arranging for marriage ties at an early age, in his locale.

GoKenya!

50 cows as natural 'lawn mowers' in the white house

White-House-Sheep.jpg

Thems is sheepies.

But wait a mo -

The offer has not been officially 'sent' to the POTUS, and the potential groom decided to use the News Media to garner attention to his lorned love.

I think that if POTUS reviews the official offer, then by the time the two lovely humans are married, He won't be POTUS anymore. No access to the lawn, alas.

There's a lot of Chinese womyns in Kenya these days, doing business and whatnots - He'd have a better chance with this offer to one of them, as they know what to do with the animals, and quickly.
