President Obama is a very intelligent man and knows his history (unlike several of the "party presidents" of the past). This trip was excellently timed to coincide with Jamaica's energy crisis having signed on to a Hugo Chavez deal that is backfiring. http://news.yahoo.com/obama-offer-al...045955378.html ; normalizing relations with Cuba during the gathering in Panama for the Seventh Summit of the Americas http://www.summit-americas.org/seventhsummit.htm and discussions with the PNP Government headed by Portia Simpson Miller regarding the Goat Island Project and China's gaining a foothold in the region.Originally Posted by Integrity
The importance of Bob Marley's music and the history of Jamaica becoming a successfully run country made up mostly of descendants of former slaves living in relative harmony with the relatives of those who enslaved them is not lost on this president.
History will look kindly on his presidency.
Peace and Guidance
