Great article, love to see our President spending time developing ties with Africa instead of Saudi Arabia et al.
The more things change the more they stay the same.
We'll see. If Obama does try to exploit Ghana for it's resources through force or otherwise, he will be just as despised as Bush.
But is sounded to me like he is interested in helping develop Africa. It will be interesting to see how much support he gets in that regard.
Yeah, developing military bases.
To gamoonbat. Check your facts before making comments. Kwesi Pratt has never stood for president of Ghana. He has the record of supporting opposition parties and has twice done that, first for the NPP to topple the NDC and vice versa now. Nonetheless, Kwesi Pratt is a socialist and is biased towards socialism majority of the times. He tends to support several conspiracy theories such as the one in this story. Ghana is a shining example of democracy and a beacon of hope in Africa. There is no doubt this is the major reason why President Obama chose to visit.
So, Obama is looking out for our interests-- as we pay him to do.
Your interests? LOL. I guess it depends who OUR is.
