I hope the election of President Obama will be the signal to all our African brothers back home that the time has come for us to take charge of our destiny and to remove decades of western suppression of our people from our continent. White domination is at an end as forecasted by people like myself many years ago. Enough is anough.

Was that really necessary to say? In both South Africa and America we've had equal rights for a while now. There's been a lot of ignorant people who voted for Obama solely because of his race. People need to get their heads out of the gutters and start looking at the policies this man wants to execute.

Equal rights for a while in SA?? - you are joking man. Uptil 1994 there was no equality for the African in SA. It will take more than one decade to reverse the damage done to the African, in fact it's gonna take centuries. We must reclaim not only our lands but get compensation for abuses we have suffered. Come Obama, Come on Zuma - do your people proud.

In 1992, 92% of African Americans voted for Bill Clinton, in 2004, 93% voted for Kerry. When this happened there were no cries of voting for your race but when about the same number of African Americans voted for Obama, then the racists and hypocrites come out from under their stones and start to lecture us on not voting or voting for someone because of their race. The wonders of the human mind never cease to amaze me.

Well I'm glad I don't live in SA anymore because Zuma is not going to improve the country mate.

As for compensation, if you haven't already noticed you guys do have Affirmative Action and BEE. This actually puts innocent whites at a disadvantage.

A few years ago I might have given you a tough time for your statement but these day I am a lot cooler and I do understand the fact that Zuma lacks formal education might be a serious handicap but one must hope that there are enough strong support staff to guide him. Afrimative action on the other hand is a completely different ball game - I suggest you do not even dare go there.
