In U.S. Election, Scant Attention to Africa Policy
The only references to Africa in the third and final debate between U.S. President Barack Obama and his challenger, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, were to events in Libya, Egypt and Tunisia, with brief mentions of Mali and Somalia. But increasing aid and investment in sub-Saharan Africa should be higher on the U.S. agenda, write K. Riva Levinson, Witney Schneidman, and Andrew Westbury.

Africa's being IMPORTANT is a secret in America. Having a beer with a
gentleman from Zimbabwe I sincerely tried to help him UNDERSTAND the U.S.
even though he's been here for almost a decade. If you have been paying
close attention to the behavior against the current president don't water
it down. You're seeing the REAL AMERICA. anti-Black/African (the racists
see it all the same NO MATTER WHAT YOU THINK) rhetoric. I didn't accuse
every white looking person of being that way, but YOU'RE WASTING YOUR LIFE
TRYING TO SORT THEM OUT. Promise. The statistics in this country are the
same TODAY as they were 50 years ago. What has changed is that SECRETLY the
same racist whites want to figure out how to USE Africa (not benefit
Africa) to maintain THEIR status quo.
