Ellen is all talk no substance! Despite all the international support, she has accomplished almost nothing. She brought in all her relatives and friends, unwilling to prosecute any government official thus taking corruption and impunity to new levels. This generation will remember this burden (Ellen) as the lady the squandered the greatest opportunity in Liberia's History!

Ellen book was written to pay off debt owe from money borrow toward the Liberian civil war. Lives were lost because of Ellen greed to become president. She has blood on her hands.

I wonder when Ellen boast about being the first female fairly elected president and the involvement of women efforts that lead her to victory. Frances Morris who was the head of the election commission at the time is now a minister in Ellen´s government. what kind of signal does that sent about the credibility of the election result that the opposition parties claimed it was unfair? Perhaps Frances Morris position in Ellen´s government is a pay back for help help to Ma Ellen?

I think the West is using Liberia as a case study. Go on the ground and see the economic inequality in Liberia and your won't listen to western promotion.

Liberia hasn't really recovered well after the civil war they had. (Note not racist I am liberian) But I'm not going to lie. The republic has changed, it is not a republic anymore


But liberia can redeem itself, that's why america has to look at the country they gave the slaves and HELP.
