PRETORIA — Michelle Obama began what officials have billed as her first major overseas trip as US first lady Monday, a visit to South Africa and Botswana focused on young women leaders and the legacy of the anti-apartheid struggle.

She is travelling with her daughters, Malia and Sasha, and her mother, Marian Robinson -- but without her husband, US President Barack Obama.

====================================

The King & Queen don't suffer such things. Those Rules & Regulations are adhered to by their subjects.

The country is falling down.

She needs to visit the Congo and get a wake up call.

[HollyB]

What was she doing while in India, England, ireland, etc...

You hit it. for sure manchelle thinks she deserves something for how awful America has treated her.

I cringe whenever she represents our county

I sure hope the secret service are still oath keepers and will inform those treasonous acts committed there.

Hey, FL, the problem in Africa isn’t the women — it’s the men — the men who are incapable of being monogamous or creating strong families. If they’d just learn to do this, we wouldn’t need to send aid to Africa.

But this point always seems lost on these people.

A nice PR distraction for the public...

Why don’t they visit West Africa where they can witness first hand the continuation of hundreds of years of African slave trade. All well and good to see South Africa but they are silent over the horrors they claim to oppose when they don’t fit the black nationalist talking points.

“Cases of child abuse and people trafficking are common in West Africa. Some children are bought from their families to for use as labour in plantations, mines, factories or as domestic help.”

The White House has emphasised the importance to the first family of South Africa's anti-apartheid movement, which President Obama has called his first political cause.

...white farmers.

[Renderofveils]

And before people take my statement and get all huffy, on average 176 white farmers per year have been murdered in South Africa since 1994. That’s about 1 every 48 hours for 17 years.
