We are not comparing him to Kenyans, we are comparing him to people of his ancestry, West Africans, which, given the right upbringing, could beat his records.

No they can’t

For some reason the site doesn’t like the content and links I’ve included and won’t let me post it

Of course they could given the right environment.

A list of West African sprinters times, so, given the selection and the privileges of the US, who knows what they could achieve.

The privileges don’t make your legs the perfect length or height

And neither did slavery FFS lol, remind me of the records his old man or old lady set, what about his grandparents? 

You are seriously suggesting that it was slavery that gave him these biological traits when slavery was what, 15 generations max? If there is any biological advantages for Western Africans,  it certainly predates slavery.

Bolt is regarded as the fastest human ever 

and no one will beat his records without chemical assistance . As he is the perfectly aligned human to conduct his sport . 

the idea of comparing him with a Kenyan who will come from a village where running is a cultural thing , is quite frankly ludicrous. 

read a book called “running with the Kenyans” and you’ll understand why . 

its a perfect Storm of physical attributes , the culture in an area of Kenya and the altitude 

In the case of bolt I haven’t made that case. 
as in the above post , he is genetically blessed to be the greatest sprinter ever 

no training will make that defecit up . 
you need to be of equal or greater physical ability to even get near 

the case of African American athletes in nfl / nba , which I discussed , Is another point entirely

Of course he's physically gifted but it's just random chance that he's the fastest man ever. It's not like he was bred down from a line of out and out athletes in the same way a champion greyhound is bred.

If he had a twin who led exactly the same life and the same mindset but was two inches shorter who wins ?

Who's saying different, but, again, he's just a freak outlier. He has a brother and sister, why aren't they prime athletes, they have the same genetics?

[THE STIFFMEISTER 16,812]

No it’s a genuine question, who would win?

Bolt, of course, because he holds a physical advantage over his sibling despite sharing the same genetics.

so why would some African punter from The west coast of Africa beat him with inferior eugenic capability ?

I'm not saying they would beat him, who can truly know, but, he is of the same genetic ancestry as those from West Africa, who on the population level happen to be blessed with more fast twitch muscle fibres than say you or I for example. He doesn't have better or worse genetics than them at the base level, he just has great physical attributes and has been raised to be an athlete by one of the most competitive nations in sprinting history.
