Obama commits to opening trade doors for Africa

[expressionfx]

Thank you President Obama , thanks for the olive branch and the inspiring words of hope and direction . Those with ears ,can hear you loud and clear . Old school have a hard time taking their heads out of the past .

The truth is (i think) that Obama has enormous work to do for his own country and the only thing he can do for Africa in this moment is to send messages of hope and encourage (also economicaly) african countries to find democracy. He has to solve some of U.S.A problems first and i say "some" because he won't solve the most of U.S.A problems in his presidency i think. BUT IF THE UNITED STATES WILL CHANGE THE WORLD WILL CHANGE A LOT TOO

i use to like obama but after this speech he resembles a joke...ghana?? you have to be kidding me, they are the true reasons why slavery even started in the first place...thats probably why ghana and the US are such perfect allies...the most powerful countries are the ones who oppose any western diplomacy...this is a joke....somalia is most powerful country in africa despiste their tribal conflicts...they stand and fall alone with no help....ghana is a sell out just like iraq.

His Offer is a bit vague. I hope he's not trying to sell Africa another dream, because we will be fools to fall for the same trip again. He ask that we govern ourselves economically, in this case, we will have to create one government for the continent under our own constitution based on our own laws and armies and scientist like Timbuktu, we need leaders leaders in Africa to stop doing backdoor deals with Europeans Natural Resource blood suckin' people.

O repped AFRICOM as security for loans for ag tech(genmod seeds,fertilizer,herbicide) done as globalist cash-crop mono-crop dependency which is neo-neo-colonialism. Farmers stop feeding nearby village when taking loans for genmod herbicide-resistant seeds, cash crops do not pay, they can't feed their families or the village, they kill themselves. US midwest farmers buy life insurance before killing themselves, then their families can eat for one more year!

[recbo]

O was not telling Afr to be self-reliant but rather he was talking down about corruption without blaming first world resource rapers("blood diamonds",tungsten,tantalum,la­nd--see pygmy and Maasai relocations) for bribery and CIA assassinations, as if backward primitivity and not colonialist bribes hinders democracy and development and tends toward corruption. Insulting!

well spoken my brother...

[hulthekore]

Read between the line, he spoke well about a particular agenda that's not so beneficial to Africa AGAIN!

[recbo]

O spoke to Ghana, Kenya, the middle of Africa literally and classwise and symbolically, where breadbasket, and radiant warm love respecting and including women comes out in danse afreak(not the Kruppt taker, Naomi Klein's "looter", that greenback mnkee!), sovrnguv & middle class.

Historically, empire rap has been known to take the form of a Kruppt greenback mnke seducing Afr to neolib/AFRICOM. O walks like Africa, but raps globalist monoculture plantation to be guarded by IMF/WB/AFRICOM.

i agree wholeheartedly africa needs self governance!!! europe and the west does not want this because of the power people of colour would wield... it's the same true and tested divide and conquer shit... barack did not come with hand outs, he told them that they had what people wanted as far as resources were concerned and they should (to make it simple) manage themselves honestly...

[bsnowman]

Obama's gone to Africa to get some oil.

[EyeWearMySunglasses]

sadly i agree

[iisaacsss]

God bless Ghana my motherland and Prez Obama

Great speech. I'm waiting for another truly remarkable communication from him, like in his 2004 Nomination speech at the DNC.
