There is an expression in the Luo language, Obama's dad would have probably used it, which translates literally, as 'Twenty Years of Bananas'. It is used to describe the actions of one who fights the inevitable course of events, often in irrational and destructive ways, only to concede in the end.
A contemporary illustration? The Clintons.

So what makes you think that Hillary Clinton will ever concede? Right now Halliburton and LucasFilm are building an exact duplicate of the White House, Capitol Building and major Washington landmarks in a remote part of Northern Virginia.

On the opening day of the Democratic Convention Hillary and Bill Clinton will be drugged and kept unconscious until the day after Inauguration Day. When they awake, they will be told that food poisioning at an Inaugural Ball caused amnesia wiping out five months of their memory.

Of course, the Clintons will awake in the fake White House in the fake Washington. Steven Spielberg will staff the White House with actors except for "interns" that will be provided by a less reputable part of the L.A. film industry.

So can the deception last eight years? That's the most beautiful part of it. It doesn't have to last eight years. At some point it just has to keep the Clintons secure in their own delusion that they can tell the difference between fantasy and reality. They will come to ignore anything that challenges this delusion. Just like they're doing right now.

Obama 08!
