So, what was Obama really saying to Ghana and Africa?

[Derek]

"Listen, I'm not the Messiah. I was not elected to come here and sort out Africa and its problems.
I have far more important issues to address.
You guys will have to do it for yourselves."


The End

It is what I expected he would do and it seems as if he delivered.
I don't listen or read too many political speeches, but I saw the transcript and clipped a few lines than I really like.
He is getting roasted here in the USA about the speech, so it must have been very good.

If that is what he said, lets hope they get it.
