Foreign Affairs Rough Draft (Excluding the War on Terrorism)
Africa- Africa is poor not because of western exploitation, but because of corrupt governance. Only by supporting emerging democracies like those in Kenya and Nigeria and opposing dictators like those in Zimbabwe and Sudan can we end this cycle of suppression of political freedom and economic opportunity. Foreign aid to Africa needs to be icnreased through the USAID program. For only $15 billion a year, according to studies by the UN, we could provide basic nutrition and medical care to every child in the third world. We can and should do this.
I know I'm not Freedom Party but you may want to exclude Nigeria from there. Nigeria has been becoming increasingly dictatorial in recent years and the dictator in that country only stepped down in 1998. This is not the type of Democracy Atlasia should back. I would say replace Nigeria with Botswana which has been a functioning Democracy for over 45 years and has been free of the corruption and rampant political turmoil that has plagued other African nations.
