Well, not to put too fine a point on it, but I'm only saying that the africans have had 500 years of experience "trading" with us. So I'm not sure you could get an african to say that trading with the US has been more "trustworthy" than trading with, say, Russia. I'll even go out on a limb one step further and say that we'd be hard pressed to find even black americans who would say that africa trading with the west has been, "trustworthy".

I mean, maybe you could find a few here or there, but for the most part, I'm guessing they'll have their guard up when they trade with us. They'll especially be on their guard with any american who struts into africa telling them, "How ya' doing buddy? We're way more 'trustworthy' than that other guy you want to do a deal with!"
