Bill Clinton is offered 40 goats and 20 cow for his daughter

Bill Clinton, used to a warm reception on his global goodwill missions, came away from Kenya this weekend with more than he bargained for.

The former US president must now consider whether the offer of 40 goats and 20 cows, made by an apparently lovestruck local official, is sufficient to persuade him to give up his daughter Chelsea for marriage.

Godwin Kipkemoi Chepkurgor wrote to Mr Clinton through Kenya's Foreign Minister, and promised him he would look after his daughter in style.

"Had I succeeded in wooing Chelsea, I would have had a grand wedding," promised the electrical engineering graduate. "I would have invited South African Anglican Archbishop Desmond Tutu to preside at the ceremony."

The councillor gave the names of the former Kenyan president Daniel Arap-Moi and two of his college mates as character references. Mr Chepkurgor also said he had been impressed by Mr Clinton's wife, Hillary, for standing by her man through the Monica Lewinksy scandal "like an African woman".

A Kenyan man traditionally has to pay a dowry in goats and cows to his bride's family and the offer that Mr Chepkurgor made for Chelsea is a generous one.

""Had I succeeded in wooing Chelsea, I would have had a grand wedding," promised the electrical engineering graduate"



This statement can't help but expose his agenda;To have a 'grand' wedding. Laughing Laughing



Skinny Malis have grand wedding every weekend in Boston---what is this adoon talking about??? You dotn have to dream 'Big' to get a grand wedding. LOL


Ok ok ok ok----he probably is genuine in his request for Chelsea's hand in marriage; forgive my cynical misgivings. possibly he meant--in her honor he would have a grand wedding.How delightfully scary. Rolling Eyes



But....still one can't help---but requit the absolute horror.Our princesses Chelsea in hands of an adoon---trying to kiss her & read her village Masai sonnets?????????



Can we all together cry--- IIIEIWWWWW!!! Laughing Laughing Laughing

PS: Clinton much be relishing this news of diversity 'recognition' ...loooool at least he will have something to talk about in his lavishing dinner table talk. I can just picture him sitting at the far edge seat of the table--the host--spot---clicking his wine glass--asking for attention' from his guests.



"So did you hear that a village African asked the hand of my Chelsea'??


A roar of laughter & silent murmurs of adoration goes through the table.



"Yes--i was offered some goats & cows.This is a beautiful genture i must say.OF course being the ---Bill ---me---i presented it to my sweetr Chelsea---and.........



pauses & hesitates.........



the crowd cries aloud collectively....
