Would be Great to have him in a USA Uniform Too Late for this year, but he is 20-21 Years old, He Could Set American Records 3000-Marathon and be our Top Runner for 10-15 Years.

The USA is becoming more like Bahrain every day. How is it that Scotland can produce Kerr, Wightman, Muir etc The North of England can produce Coe, Cram, Elliott, Foster, Burgin, Dustin etc, one small town (Brighton) produce Ovett, Grice, Langford etc and a population of 500 million has to buy East Africans and feed their native talent Mexican burritos?

can you name the male British athletes to win an Olympic medal in a distance event in the last 4 olympics? Now do the same of the US.
Get it?
You nativist, racist prick.
Obviously he forget Mo Farah or the Jamaican Born Kelly Holmes.
(sub-graded) who have produced more than anything else.
USA sucks, they don't have the grit. Julien Wanders didn't choose Kenya for nothing. And yes, you might say lately he had bad performances. But let me tell you the good performances he had, he would have never got them had he went to the USA. He would never have broken 60 minutes half.
The problem in the US is that the athletes (distance runner at least) consider what they do like a job. There is no soul like in Kenya.
In East Africa, they consider what they do like a religion. They're hungry.
Distance athletes should consider the USA, like soccer players consider it. When they're at the end of their career, they know they're not up there with the best, so they cash in and go to the US like Thierry Henry or Ibrahimovic to rip undeserved money.

Kelly Holmes was born in England.
I don't know if you're making a joke, but she's also a woman.

What are you on about?
2016 Olympics:
Great Britain:
Gold- 5000m
Gold- 10000m
BUT by your reasoning (not mine) Mo doesn’t count, as he’s East-African.
US:
Bronze, 800m
Gold, 1500
Silver, 3000 SC
Silver, 5000m
Bronze, marathon
Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, UAE could pay the man 1 million to be a citizen and they wouldn't blink. That's a lot for Jacob and a penny for these countries.

You're right, I'm sure UK wouldn't accept Kiplimo into their country if he chose to live there, just like they didn't accept Mo Farah.
