What was the purpose of Mr. Obama's trip to Africa?

There is absolutely no comparison between George Washington and Nelson Mandela.
George Washington was a Founding Father. He presided over the convention that drafted the Constitution and warned the nation against partisanship, sectionalism, and involvement in foreign wars.
Nelson Mandela was… well, a communist and a terrorist.
Mandela was a member of the South African Communist Party. He co-founded Umkhonto we Sizwe, a terrorist organization that killed civilians, including children. Fast food outlets and supermarkets were favored targets. In addition to terrorist bombings, the military wing of the African National Congress tortured and executed suspected government agents.

Family vacation?
To perpetuate "white guilt"?

U.S. president had been a “disappointment.”
Reuters reported that nearly 1,000 trade unionists, Muslim activists, South African Communist Party members and others marched to the U.S. Embassy where they burned a U.S. flag, calling Obama's foreign policy “arrogant and oppressive.”
"We had expectations of America's first black president. Knowing Africa's history, we expected more,” Khomotso Makola, a 19-year-old law student, told Reuters. He said Obama was a “disappointment, I think Mandela too would be disappointed and feel let down.”

You got it buddy. Then visit with a couple of dignitaries and call it an "official visit" and we pick up the tab. This couple are just kids in the candy store and we're buying the candy.

Buckwheat did go over there to handout a few $BILLION$ for electrifying rural parts of Africa.

Wait just a minute............. Buckwheat did go over there to handout a few $BILLION$ for electrifying rural parts of Africa. (Even though our own grid is in significant need of updates, according to many.)
Isn't that good enough reason to go and take the family? :lol: :lol:
