Haruna:
Not so fast!
Is it your view that my response to Suntou would not have been equally applicable to Clinton, or McCain, for that matter?
I take the view that imperial hubris comes with the Presidency, and Suntou should therefore not be disappointed.

JDAM,
I was just going to give my concession speech to Moribolong but you just
broadsided me. I'll hold off for a moment until I understand my
Suntou's angst.
I'm thinking along the same lines you are, and I think Suntou's
reaction is a
result of what he did not appreciate in Obama month's ago. I think like
Suntou, many more are in for a rude awakening. I, on the other hand,
understood
these dynamics moons ago and I appreciated Obama for it. So Obama has not
changed his positions nor posture. Suntou was just beginning to understand
Obama.
I hope I can explain it better for Suntou to appreciate Obama even though
Suntou seemed to be shocked. It's all good Suntou.
Haruna.

Welcome to the United States of America, to the politics of special
interests, and to a foreign policy fundamentally anchored in aggressive
hubris.

Obama's journey has great symbolic significance, but the character of the
United States is not amenable to your expectations. Not even if Obama served
two terms, and even where your Haruna is his Vice President. He must of course
satisfy the constitutional hurdle of&nbsp;natural birth&nbsp;in the US
of A.
&nbsp;
I would rather concentrate on Jammeh.

what on earth was obama thinking? before he even start he is bending the
diplomatic rules. no wonder some where suspicious of him. the arrogance of
israle is out for every one to see yet obama who was talking like an angel
turn
around like a poppy. but heeey, the sponsors want their dollar's worth.
what
a mess. obama is supported by minorities of every sort but today after his
disaster speech, people must weigh their options, do they want the same old
kind of american leaders? who will give a blind eye to their allies crimes. i
am shell shocked. but who am i to question the eloquent african american?
obama
has pass his first test.
