More like consequences have choices, atleast the good thing about all this is it was proven to never listen to so called know it alls, majority of the time they are wrong. Americans are very pragmatic, they sat down after elections and weighed the pros and cons of dealing with Uhuruto and realized its in their best interests to engage them. Not only does Kenya have oil, but its their strongest ally in the fight against Al Shabab. Interesting how UK sent a covert message that if they want to negotiate with his government, it should be directly from Obama and not through an Ambassador, talk about knowing your worth and using it to leverage.
