First lady Jill Biden met with Namibian President Hage Geingob on Wednesday to kick off her five-day, two-country visit to Africa.
“We wanted to come because this is a young democracy and we want to support democracies around the world,” Biden said ahead of the meeting.
Biden visited with Geingob and Namibian first lady Monica Geingos at the State House and after a photograph together, the three had a closed-door meeting.
Geingob asked Biden how her husband was ahead of the meeting and she replied, “He’s great. I will tell him you were asking for him.”
Her focus in Namibia is on the “role of young people in continuing to shape their democracy and advance health cooperation,” senior administration officials said on Tuesday. The last time a senior White House official visited Namibia was former Vice President Al Gore in 1996.

I hate the BEEPING word democracy. Over used and they don't know the true meaning of it.

This is the sort of low urgency, high expense trip usually assigned to a Vice President. Jill is not personally accomplished enough to be seen as a proper Diplomat.
So, why wasn’t Kamala sent?
I have a few ideas.

Her focus on Namibia is to buy diamonds with Brandon Bucks stolen from you.

You know about those African Princes and Dr. Jill's dalliances.

Namibia is ... famous for the highest dunes in the world at Sossusvlei and for the Etosha National Park...Here's what Dr. Jill can fine out - she can solve a mystery Since blacks 'BUILT AMERICA' - AND THOSE WERE THE BLACKS WHO WERE SOLD BY BLACK OTHER AFRICANS, why didn't the blacks who WERE NOT sold build great cities in Africa like they did here?

RE: He was probably sick and needed a Doctor
As an EdD she is qualified to make house calls to read peer reviewed educational papers aloud to make him feel better all over.

Jill Biden’s Doctorate Is Garbage Because Her Dissertation Is Garbage By Kyle Smith December 16, 2020.
Insisting on being called “Doctor” when you don’t heal people is, among most holders of doctorates, seen as a gauche, silly, cringey ego trip. Consider “Dr.” Jill Biden, who doesn’t even hold a Ph.D. but rather a lesser Ed.D., something of a joke in the academic world.

Frank, Even Whoopi Goldberg said she was a great Doctor and would make a fine Surgeon General. Who are you going to believe, Whoopi, or the facts?

Ha.
I bow to the estimable intellect and erudition of Whoopi.
Note: Her name actually was from a whoopee cushion.
