Barack's Family History Safari - Is there killing involved?

Wouldn’t it be great if we can learn more about Barack Obama’s family history and kill things while doing so…Just kidding, but some of you guys would think so, shame on you.

Finally after over 200 years of strife, conflict, tears, and many more absurdities, the United States of America has finally received a black President. This is a landmark time in all our lives, so why don’t we take some time out in our hectic and egocentric lives to know more about whom this history maker is and where he comes from.

Let’s take a trip to his ancestry land as 2Afrika, the company offering this exciting and educational 11-day Presidential Safari, proposes. During the trip you'll learn how his family lived and lives in Africa. You'll be to visit where his father lived, the roots of his family, and you'll be able see wild game at the reserve behind a scope of a high powered rifle...probably not though; it’ll most likely be behind a Nikon or Fuji…

Game on!
