Change into what?
I mean Rhodesia has changed too. Hell Detroit has changed as well.
Funny how the world works sometimes. Just think of Menachem Begin who went from being a terrorist to being prime minister of Israel to winning the Nobel peace prize.
Barf alert?
No
But I’ve been to Malawi Zimbabwe and Mozambique and I prefer the plumbing and water supply in Atlanta
> Cruz is a pretty smart guy. Are we missing something?
I call draw play for the Obama followers / libtards out there.
Sean Hannity just said he was “unjustly” locked up for 27 years. The world is mad.
Sean, please read up on Mandela's history so you don't make such simpleton mistakes.

There will be even more grabass and dancing than the Wellstone funeral.
Either Castro looks a lot like Jack Palance, or vice versa!
He has to talk about something other than obamacare.
“...like fighting apartheid. That was an evil system. ..”
GOPJ, but I suspect that most White South Africans looked at apartheid as self-preservation for their civilization, culture, traditions, and the society that they built there. Their families were there for hundreds of years, and turned that place into a thriving economic system, where none existed prior.
Imagine “world pressure” on the USA to disarm our citizenry, change our way of life, give up our traditions, heritage, culture, society, etc., - sorta like what we’re going through right now. To me, THAT is evil.
They looked across the border into the former Rhodesia, saw the hell that place had become as “Zimbabwe” and said “No thanks.”
My guess is that all that they feared would come to pass if they gave in - did in fact come to pass.
We’ve never lived there, nor dealt with what those folks dealt with, and have only the liberal media’s version of what apartheid is/was.
For comparison - take a walk through any inner city - North Philly, Camden, Cleveland, Detroit, Baltimore - at night, unarmed, bringing nothing but the best of intentions with you. I think you’d discover what “evil” really is very quickly.
Obama has a point in the Martin Luther King comparison. MLK was a Marxist sympathizer and a Communist fellow-traveller. Nelson Mandela was an outright Communist.
