Botswana has made some improvements. It’s not super-developed, of course, and there is a high AIDS rate but overall the country is growing but it does not suffer from the same problems that face other African countries.

I think it’s wrong to attribute to race what you can attribute to improperly developed cultures and, ironically, the far more disastrous (than colonialism) influence of Western statist ideologies, which when combined with tribalism or lack of technological development are an utter disaster for the people who adopt them.

Color should not be a basis for an opinion on anything. Sadly much of the time it is.

I don’t think Obama’s Chi-town Mojo is
up to dealing with island voodoo. I just
hope they focus it all on HIM.
