Your characterization of Obama's call for Africans to give equal RIGHTS to all people under the law guaranteed by written constitutions is incorrect, unfortunate and disrespectful, to say the least. Nobody is advocating rights under moral laws. There are no absolute moral laws. Within the Abrahamic religions, the moral laws of Jews, Christians and Muslims are different but within states where all these people live lives under these different moral laws, the rights guaranteed to all citizens are the same under constitutions adopted by the people. Should a Christian's hands be cut off when he is caught stealing as done under muslim sharia law or be prosecuted for theft under the constitutional law? It is about constitutional guaranteed rights to all, not to any group and denied to others.

Do you think Obama could have said in South Africa, or Egypt or Morocco. Hell No. When you have become a perpetual beggar with your calabash in hand, anyone, I mean anyone has the right to tell you what they deem fit. Black Africa does not need to DEMAND any respect from anyone but rather HAVE TO respect themselves first by using their resources well to cater for all of their citizens. In doing, the respect will come naturally to them. It is as simple as that.
When you have opened camps for your old people as "witch camps," what audacity do you have to tell any advanced country who are taking care of their old in nice places where your own brothers and sisters slave themselves to wipe their arses. Don't you know that DV lottery program is meant just for that? You seriously need to engage your brain cells when you put your pc before you.

If the American Law stops punishing its citizens for polygamy, Ghanaians will consider the case of gay marriage and tell them what we think. If equal rights in marriage really means equality for all, then the whole world should allow men to adopt their wives names too when they get married. So we can have for example "John Elizabeth Smith". Yes, equal rights for men. How silly!

Where, which bloc now in the world today would you associate with and become successful? China? Russia? or the European Union?
Let me just show you one thing. Look do you realized that as US refused to intervain in the Syrian War, Millions of Million of people are still been killed every hour and every day for almost 3yrs. Which country in the world do you think can stop this by itself in just an hour? Do you remmember how many minutes it took the US to kick the Bot of Sadam? or even Gadafi?. this make the United States the Supper Power. I tell you It would only take US 30minutes to decalre no fly Zone in Syria and kick their Bot if they want to.
So if the chance is giving to find a friend why would you like to pick the weakest one Fool!
No matter how you beat the drums of hatered US is the Best and Best of all nations. even the Bible predicts that.

It is said that Romans has the right to release their flatulent to entertain themselves when they carry their swords, spears and arrows, kill and plunder.
We are well aware of how the west and the U.S. forced the sniffing of opium on nations with the force of arms and the overthrow of Ghaddafi is in tune with the spread of opium. Mr. Barack Obama claimed that he use opium in his youth.
Thus the world outlook of Barack Obama is no different from that of the Roman soldier, though he lives in the 21st century.
Most Ghanaians do not realize that it is an absurdity for U.S. to tell us in 1966 that he have dictatorship in Ghana when the Negro which we are at that time is regarded by the U.S. constitution to be an animal less than the white man's dog.
In 2008 Condolleza Rice told the whole world that Negro policemen on pension in the U.S. are paid less than their Blanco counterparts. Before Barack Obama came on his African trip he told the whole world that women in the U.S. are paid less for the same work of the same value than men.
So the ruse of Democracy of which Homosexuality is not an exception is just like the Roman flatulent to gloat over their victory.
Is it to make African men have sex with each other whiles our women and children cry for us demeaning ourselves to please the west. The Romans said that they take pride in killing men before their wives and children to enjoy when they wail over the lifeless body of their beloved one.
We can all see how the opium sniffing leaders of NATO took the world to and how they created he Islamic fundamentalist terrorist in Pakistan, with the ruse of fighting Soviet Expansionism, which in reality was to protect the poppy fields in Afghanistan and the trade through Turkey which is a NATO member.
We witnessed and still keep our mouth agape as we see, smell and hear how the Islamic chickens came home to roost, not just to make noise like chickens. Or we better call them bird piranha that eat themselves and everyone in sight. They have their illusions just like that of Obama and his western leaders to have illusion of gay marriage and the other to have twelve wives and husbands in heaven.
The problem with the west is that they always elect to office a gang leader and not a wise one.

Our focus should be on accelerating development so our % of aid reduces and our dependence on US & other Big Six
It's like a housewife totally dependant on her husband
Woe betide her if said husband is not kind or caring and is a Super Power over her! Ghana, do you now feel for women like that?
