Jacob Frey was the incumbent Mayor this week in a race for Minneapolis Mayor. His opposition was a man named Omar Fateh. Fateh is part of the Somali community and as such, many thought he had a good chance to win the election. There is a huge Somali population in Minnesota, after all. Well, apparently, clan 'wars' have come to the United States along with importing Somalis into our country, and Fateh lost because one Somali clan hates his clan. Yes, really.

So, some Somalis are angry they don't have a Somali Mayor because the clans refused to unite. Yes, this is happening in America.

This seems suboptimal.

Dustin Grage writes a great deal about Minnesota politics and has some insight into this whole dynamic.

Maybe this should be a wake up call about assimilation and how immigrants adapt to the American way of life.

It sounds like the opposite of democracy, actually. 

Well said.
