Bono, ugh. Trying yet again to get Whites to give up more of their hard-earned money to lost causes.

I'm not even remotely interested in what he has to say.

For a British Ghanaian, this is a pat on the back of progress being made at home.Well said and written by Bono and will be canvassing for a chieftain in my ancestral hometown!

It's nice to read a positive perspective, not a crude and indignant one.
Regarding both Africa and our President.

I am excited and looking forward to this.

XXO♥

p.s. I ♥ you Bono!

I'm adressing this to Mike from nyc – hardly in one word did Bono request Us for a dime – he made an honest commentary about Africa – and why Mike do you have to use the name whites as the ones giving their hard earned dollar? Why do u have to always resort to race when discussing Africa – might be that's a problem!

Congratulations on your humanitarians commitments, DATA (Debt, AIDS, Trade in Africa),
Product Red (whose profits are earmarked for programs against AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria) among others

Rebranding Africa has been going on for the past decade by the "Republic of China"(ROC)! It seemingly is their continent to own,along with the Arabs taking up the periphery in the north-east regions. Obviously,the african's feel as if their getting a better bang for their euro/yaun conversion,versus the sickly greenback? In fact,China lays no claim to occupation,or a strong political presense,other than a structured (strickly) mutual business affilliation,where both sides our winners [and when I say winners (African's),I mean the general populus,not the chosen few]. We as american's can learn,from the successful happening in modern day "Africa"?

Mr. president,
Your willingness to work with one of Africa’s long serving dictators, Meles Zenawi, who killed hundreds of peacefull demonstrators and imprisons tens of thousands who protested the rigged vote is disappointing, to say the least.

Ethiopia’s dictator, Came to power after 17 years of war and destruction with an equally brutal military regime. The two regimes, led by communist ideologues, created one of the greatest tragedies of the last century, the 1985 famine of Ethiopia.

you chose one of these groups as a partner to work with. That is a total betrayal of our hope and aspiration that we thought your presidency will bring to our country

From the article:

"...that countries like Italy and France are not meeting their Africa commitments..."

What was that about money, Simon?

Who's "always" bringing up race? Whites - liberal or "conservative" - rarely bring up that subject when discussing Africa. The last four or five decades have conditioned them not to think that way.

It's odious libs like Bono that never tire of throwing the "We are All Africans©" refrain around like it was going out of style. Which, unfortunately, it never will.

Excellent post. Looking forward to the interview and other coverage of the visit.

The voters are watching the perz. carefully, I hope he can get our counrty back on track. We must get our houses back to were their are savings account.

Us from Africa love Pres.Obama ,expecially kenyans but please dont write bad things about our beloved and beatiful country Kenya. we respect that Mr, Obama choose Ghana
