During his visit to Africa, President Obama visited an old slave trading post and said this:
While not mentioning the United State of America, he did fail to mention that:
- Our Founding Fathers banned importation of slaves in The United States
- Slave trading actually ended in 1808
- Over many years United States citizens spilled their own blood to stop the institution of slavery
- Europeans were not actually the one involved in the establising of the slave trade on the African continent:
I would be nice to have a little honesty for a change.
