By BLAIZE KADURU, Chief Economist of USAfrica multimedia networks and CLASSmagazine, Houston.

As Frank Annunzio, a shrewd former Democratic member of Congress from Chicago – reflecting on how Congress really works – once observed: “All the matters here is the votes. Everything else is [baloney].”
Right now, Obama and the Democrats should be concerning themselves solely with cobbling together bare majorities in both houses to achieve final passage.
Nigerians are moving on, with casual regard for the mysterious presidency of the indisposed Yar’Adua and the man who imposed him and his VP Goodluck Jonathan on Nigeria in 2007, the retired General and former president Olusegun Obasanjo. The truth of the matter is that Nigerians are sick and tired of subjecting our youth and children to compete and struggle for the same political positions with their grand-fathers…. the demands of Nigerians for a responsible and responsive government will not quieten with the return from Saudi Arabia (after 100 days) of the unwilling president of Nigeria ‘Baba Go-Slow’ Umar Yar’Adua. Nigerians say welcome, and goodbye….
With Yar’Adua out of sight and reach since Feb 24 return, confusion continues in the presidency. Special to USAfricaonline.com and CLASSmagazine Umaru Yar’Adua’s unexpected return to Nigeria while still too ill to resume office has undermined the acting president and sown further confusion in the government, analysts say. “We are just creating a bundle of confusion [...]

Go to Hell, Pat Robertson — and the sooner the better. Your ‘theological’ nonsense is revolting. Don’t speak for Haiti, and don’t speak for God. Haiti is suffering a catastrophe and you offer silliness at best, and racism at the worst. Haiti was the first island in the Western hemisphere to overthrow slavery and white oppression — this is what you call a pact with the Devil? God’s heart is breaking with this tragedy, and ours should be too
President Obama said the plot was “not the fault of a single individual or organization, but rather a systemic failure across organizations and agencies.”
Obama gets “war president” rebuke from his ally Michael Moore in an open letter Dear President Obama, Do you really want to be the new “war president”?

After returning from a recent Republican Conference where I was the keynote speaker, I couldn’t help but to notice that the average age of most of the attendees was 60 plus. Fact is that many conservative parents and grandparents confess that their children and grandchildren are liberal and want nothing to do with the party of their parents.

Why aren’t young people attracted to the Republican Party, and what must the Party do to attract more young people?
