07/07/2009: "Obama tells Africans to stop blaming whites for their problems"
"I think part of what's hampered advancement in Africa is that for many years we've made excuses about corruption or poor governance â€" that this was somehow the consequence of neo-colonialism, or the West has been oppressive, or racism," Mr. Obama told an African website, AllAfrica , in his only interview dedicated to Africa before his visit.
"I'm not a believer in excuses," he said. "I'd say I'm probably as knowledgeable about African history as anybody who's occupied my office, and I can give you chapter and verse on why the colonial maps that were drawn helped to spur on conflict. … And yet the fact is we're in 2009."
The West cannot be blamed for the disastrous policies that have brought catastrophe to Zimbabwe and other African countries over the past 15 or 20 years, he said. "I think it's very important for African leadership to take responsibility and be held accountable."
[ All well and good that Obama is saying this, but rather odd that he still believes in affirmative action in the US. ]

I heard this spoken by him during elections and is utter hypocrisy. Being married to a genocidal, racist, and slanderous wife proves he is a false-teacher and a liar. What does the Bible and even Nostradamus say about the black beast who will speak proud and boastful words among other things??? All I hear is more political-rhetoric by this moron who himself is an affirmative-action baby.
It seems to me he is trying to keep us whites brainwashed into thinking he is impartial but his actions speak louder than his nonsense. The left calls him a new (MLK) but I call him just another "Malcom X" if not more radical because of all the Jews Obama loves hanging around with and has put in power. Obama is a social-globalist as [Malcom X] was a black-nationalist and hated Jews, so Obama is far worse in my opinion then those before him.
It all goes in one ear and out the other to me and does not even faze me!!!
