America Finally Grows Up? This coming from the most backward, most ignorant continent on the planet?

reply to Kevin G Africa as a continent might be backward,but many Africans are not backward,and are better informed and better educated than many people from Europe,Asia and the Americas. You might want to do a web search on the writer of the article you are responding to and use that in testing my contention as well as measure yourself against his accomplishments.

America grows up wow just b/c America elected a black president and he happens to be of African descent has nothing to do with being grown up........ American politics is definately not run from Europe or anywhere else in the world but by Americans. I am sorry to burst your bubble but Obama is not the complete solution to America's problems or the worlds. We had problems before him and we will have problems after him. Obama is not the savior of the world and trust me Africa his focus will be on the US economy and so that does not mean more money for Africa. It is funny in how so many whites are called racists but many people love Obama for the color of his skin and has nothing too do with his politics. So many things he stands for your own cultures are so against but b/c he is black he is great, sorry no man is perfect...
