Before the flight home, Obama planned to tour Cape Coast Castle, a seaside fortress converted to the slave trade by the British in the 17th century. In its dungeons, thousands of shackled Africans huddled in squalor before being herded onto ships bound for America.

The castle visit mirrored ones paid by Clinton and George W. Bush to the slave-trading post of Goree Island, Senegal — with the added impact of Obama's mixed-race background and history-making election.

3. CNN was the only cable "news" channel to show this

Faux is faux, and the great liberal MSNBC was showing us the lives of the Jackson family.

CNN has major faults, but once again out of the 3, they seem to take news most serious. MSNBC is fast becoming unwatchable apart from Ed and KO.
