Obama Discovers Ubuntu, Then Proves He Doesn’t Have It (Part 2)

 

We pick up from where we left off with yesterday’s presentation – a blow-by-blow analysis of President Obama’s speech at the Dec. 10 massive memorial service for the world-revered Nelson Mandela, attended by almost 100 heads of state and high-profile people and about 50,000 mourners who defied a steady rain at the First National Bank Stadium in Johannesburg.

Obama’s speech was a huge eye opener about the president himself – chiefly, his discomfort with his African identity; his revisionism of a people’s war against European invasion and supremacy and of ubuntu, the sociopolitical philosophy that kept the spirit of freedom burning throughout Africa; his outrageous proposition that Mandela benefited from being jailed for 27 years; and his intolerable insinuation that he has been trying to walk in Mandela’s path.
