9With him, America has become less arrogant.Lasa tsy be dehaka i Amerika rehefa niaraka taminy.
10But has it become more popular in the Muslim world and Africa?Nefa niha-nalaza ve izy tany amin'ny tontolo silamo sy tany Afrika?

25Four years ago, few could have predicted that one of President Obama's legacies would be increased militarization of U.S. foreign policy towards Africa - but that seems to be the case.

28It's not clear that our expanded military presence in Africa serves any pressing U.S. national security need.Tsy azo antoka ho nisy fiatraikany tamin'ny Fiarovam-pirenena amerikana ny fisian'ny tafika amerikana betsaka any Afrika.

31We must not delude ourselves.Tsy tokony hanonofy atoandro.
32Obama is the son of an African, but Obama is American.Obama dia zanaka Afrikana, fa Amerikana izy.
33His election is historic in a country which has known slavery and segregation.Manan-tantara ho an'ny firenena niaina fanandevozana sy fanavakavaham-bolon-koditra ny fahalaniany ho filoha.
34But on the field of politics, it's a question of large-scale calculations of interests.Fa resaka kajikajin-tombontsoa avo lenta ny amin'ny lafiny politika.

37With the hint of a smile, she answers questions with liveliness and humour.Niaraka tamin'ny tsiky kely, tamim-pahavitrihana sy hehy no namaliany ireo fanontaniana .
38After each statement she squints, sometimes nudging the person beside her.Isaky ny fanambaràna, miketrona kely ny masony ary indraindray dia doniny kely ny olona mipetraka eo akaikiny.
39At no time does she deviate from her script.Tsy nisy fotoana tsy nifantohany tamin'ny kabary.

44Even though the disappointment felt at Obama's legacy in Africa is certainly tangible, the political convictions of Obama seem to converge with those of the majority of Africans.Satria na dia misy tokoa aza ny fahadisoam-panantenana tamin'i Obama amin'ny tombana mikasika an'i Afrika, ny fomba fijery ara-politika kosa toa mifanaraka amin'ny an'ny ankabeazan'ireo afrikana.
45The ‘chemistry' felt is not due to his family ties with Kenya but rather to a geopolitical pragmatism and common interests to defend, as underlined by [fr] Adrien Hart:Tsy noho ny fananany havana any Kenya intsony ny fifanantonana fa noho ny fomba fijery ny toerana ara-politika sy ny fiarovana ireo tombontsoa iombonana, araka ny hamafisin'i Adrien Hart:
46Obama, like the Bushes before him, did not see the ‘Chinese Dragon' coming to Africa.Obama, tahaka ireo Bush teo alohany, dia tsy nahita ny fahatongavan'ny «trimobe Sinoa» tany Afrika.
47The Americans, just like the Europeans, did not anticipate either the growing threat of ‘God's fanatics' in Africa.Tsy nampoizin'ireo Amerikana, tahaka ny Eoropeana, ihany koa ny fitomboan'ny loza manàmbana entin'ireo «Adalan'Andriamanitra» any Afrika [..]
48[…] Obama could not have done anything to counter the advance of the Chinese and the Islamists.Tsy afaka nanohitra ny fandrosoan'ny Sinoa sy ny islamista i Obama.
49But will Africa vote in November for his opponent, Mitt Romney, Republican, Mormon and above all immensely rich, surely too rich?Nefa hifidy ho an'i Mitt Romney mpifanandrina aminy, repoblikàna, “mormon” sady mpanefoefo, diso tafahoatra mihitsy aza ve Afrika amin'ny novambra?
50Surely not.Tsia velively.
51Yes, Obama has disappointed us.Eny, nandiso fanantenana i Obama.
52But Africa doesn't want him to leave.Nefa tsy te-hahita azy hiala i Afrika.
53Without him, things would be worse.Vao maika ho loza raha tsy eo izy.
