If there is therefore at least a lesson for Africans to logically draw from the formidable “OBAMA Saga”, it is that African descendants, like Africans living on the continent, are not condemned to an eternal last position in all the classrooms of the world. The price to pay to transcend these false beliefs, this indolence and this fixed fatalism that characterizes many individuals and leaders of this continent, the cradle of humanity. Is faith in serious and rigorous work; rebirth of a real and firm confidence in the self, in Africa and in our abilities; recourse to a firm determination to surmount all obstacles in our way so as to develop a winning vision that had been previously defined and democratically accepted. It is not with self-flagellation and an inferiority complex in relation to other civilizations of the world that one could build the future of a proud, rich and prosperous Africa.
