Jimbo la Marekani, South Carolina, wagoma kumuenzi Mandela!

A South Carolina sheriff is refusing to lower the American flag in tribute to Nelson Mandela, saying the honor should be reserved for American citizens.
President Barack Obama ordered flags lowered to half-staff for the international icon until sunset Monday.
But Pickens County Sheriff Rick Clark says not in his department.
"It's just my simple opinion that the flag should only be lowered to half-staff for Americans who sacrificed for their country," Clark told

Nelson Mandela isn't an easy person to categorize in a short headline. The New York Times called him a dissident, liberator and statesman.
The first black president of South Africa died Thursday at the age of 95, sparking a worldwide mourning that few others could inspire. Mandela, who emancipated his country from white minority rule, had a worldwide impact that went far beyond politics. (Including a deep connection with soccer.)
Many members of the NFL community expressed their thoughts and condolences after Mandela died Thursday:

BOXING GREAT MUHAMMAD ALI PAYS TRIBUTE TO MANDELA
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - Muhammad Ali paid tribute to Nelson Mandela as a symbol of forgiveness who inspired others to "reach for what appeared to be impossible," as the boxing great joined in mourning the death of the South African anti-apartheid leader Thursday.
The icons who shared a boxing background met twice - once in South Africa and once in North America, said a spokeswoman for the Ali Center in Louisville, Ali's hometown.
"What I will remember most about Mr. Mandela is that he was a man whose heart, soul and spirit could not be contained or restrained by racial and economic injustices, metal bars or the burden of hate and revenge," Ali said in his statement released by the Ali Center. "He taught us forgiveness on a grand scale."
Mandela emerged from 27 years in prison to negotiate an end to white minority rule in South Africa. He later became the country's first black president.
"He inspired others to reach for what appeared to be impossible and moved them to break through the barriers that held them hostage mentally, physically, socially and economically," Ali said. "He made us realize, we are our brother's keeper and that our brothers come in all colors."
 
Mjinga mmoja mbaguzi hawezi kuwa wamarekani wote. Sehemu kubwa ya marekani redio na TV zinaonegelea msiba waMandela tu na katika sehemu zote za nchi bendera ziko nusu mlingoti. Wabaguzi hao wasiotaka kuheshimu amri za Obama wapo wachache wachache, na hasa hii inapohuyusu kiongozi mweusi ndiyo hasiara zao zinazidi. Kuna mmoja aliyewahi kusema hawezi kwenda vitani kwa sababu amiri jeshi mkuu ni Obama. Kwa bahati mbaya executive orders hazina penalty, zingekuwa nayo huyu naye angeishia kunakojulikana kama yule mwanajeshi alivyoteketea kijinga kijinga hivi hivi.
 
mtu mmoja lakini kampinga rais waziwazi kwenye media na kuna watu wameonyesha kumsupport,so si jambo dogo tulitizame kwa mapana,je anayo haki ya kufanya hivyo au anasukumwa na ubaguzi tu?

kichwa cha habari nilikichagua hicho purposely.
