NPR just had a story about Bush's push to create this entity to "help" all the African nation's achieve "stability". Well, seems many African nations don't like us having troops and intervening in their affairs and don't want it. They see it as the US trying to secure Africa's natural resources. But Bush is oblivious to their concerns because, according to him, we are simply trying to help them.
I don't have a link to the NPR story. But wiki sums it up pretty well. Check it out:

How rediculous have we gotten as a nation?!?!?! Now we are trying to continent-build! I wonder how much THIS costs. :mad:
Ron Paul has really opened my eyes into how much we really interfere in every single foreign country. Man I hope Ron Paul wins!!!!!!!!!!!!
