In his "AUDACITY OF NIGHTMARES", celebrated Politician and former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate, "Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah Boateng, popularly known by Ghanaians around the World as "Kwame Mayor" - an ardent supporter of Senator Barack Obama's Presidential Candidacy of "Change; Hope and Yes We Can" - a highly educated alumnus of the prestigious University of Southern California (USC), and anticipated Ph.D. student in Political Science at the equally prestigious Claremont Graduate University (CGU), who is currently striving to become the first Ghanaian-American democratically elected President of Ghana, says the White House should have included him in President George Bush's trip to his Native Country of Ghana.
The Ghanaian-American Politician, perhaps, the first indigenous African to run for a higher public office in the history of America since America's independence from Great Britain in 1776, says his personal experiences in his "Audacity of Nightmares" is a sharp contrast to Barack Obama's Audacity of Hope !!!.
( The Charismatic Politician, with a "Never - Give-UP" attitude is publicly challenging Barack Obama's "Change and Hope" and "Yes, We Can" political agenda -to seriously consider him for a position as United States Secretary of State; Under-Secretary for African Affairs or an Ambassador to an African Country, especially Ghana, should Barack Obama become President of United States of America).
Kwame Appiah Boateng ("Kwame Mayor"), who ran for public office in America long before the "Terminator", Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger ran for Public office, and long before Senator Barack Obama ran for public office, has made it absolutely clear that he will never give up on the "Great American Dream", despite his nightmarish experiences of deprivation and lack of equal opportunity, amid deplorable, despicable and Monumental Injustices, unprecedented in the New Millennium.
It should be recalled that the Pro-American Democracy Activist, who has tirelesly spent years extolling the noble values of Democracy, Freedom and Liberty as well as promoting "American Style of Democracy", was ironically put on a secret "Political Show Trial" in Los Angeles, in what a Judge called the political "Trial of the Century !!!", and in a strange twist, a prosecutor is on record (Court Transcript of the Politically-Motivated Trial) - for posing the following infamous question to the former Political Defendant in the proverbial Land of the Free and Home for the Brave :
"Are you humble ?" ... "Didn't you ask President Clinton to appoint you as an Ambassador to an African Country ?". The Politician, dubbed "America's Mandela" still thanks the Civilized and Democratic government of the White House and President Bill Clinton's Administration which ordered the Justice Department to investigate allegations of politically-motivated persecution and torture against the first Ghsanaian-American to symbolically run for Mayor of Los Angeles.
The Politician, Founder of the Ghanaian-Americans Coalition (GAC); Coalition of Ghanaians Abroad (COGA) and Coalition of Naturalized American Citizens and Legal Residents, hinted that during President George Bush's 2003 trip to Africa, he sent his resume and cover letter to the White House, pleading with President George Bush to visit Ghana, and also pleading with the White House to include him on the President's entourage to the African trip.
"Only the Office of America's First Lady, Mrs. Laura Bush wrote to thank me for my efforts, whereas the ruling government of my own Land of Birth did not even thank me for trying to pursuade President George Bush to visit Ghana in 2003, said the Politician.
The Politician, who graduated with Bachelor of Science in Public Affairs and Public Administration from the University of Southern California (USC); a Master of Public Administration (MPA), also from the University of Southern California (USC), a Master's Certificate in Public Financial Management from (USC); pursued Doctoral (Coursework) in Public Administration at (USC); once admitted to the London School of Economics (LSE); pursued studies Paralegal (Legal Studies) and Real Estate at West Los Angeles College, and admitted (anticipated) Ph.D. Student in Political Science at Claremont Graduate University (CGU), says he will never give up pursuing the Great "American Dream", despite his nightmarish experiences and lack of equal opportunities, and lamented that he did not hear anything from the White House - not even a Thank You Note, when he sent his resume to the White House, to the attention of President George Bush to be considered for the position of President of the World Bank or other White House appointment(s).
The Charismatic "Kwame Mayor", Great Grandson of Asante Anti-Colonialism War Generals, who has often criticised Ghana's ruling government of President John Agyekum Kufuor for systematically stealing his strategic ideas (some of these ideas have become Monumental in Ghana) - yet the government of Ghana has never given him any credit, and to add insult into injury, the ruling government of his Native Country of Ghana has been persecuting him without cause, said he feels being harassed for political reasons by a [few] rogue elements in Ghana and also, a [few] rogue elements in USA which supports Ghana's ruling Kufuor's - *(without the knowledge of the civilized and democratic government of the White House).
"The inability or failure of the White House to condemn the politically motivated persecution of a Ghanaian-American Politician and notably, a former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate is regrettable, and a great obstacle to the pursuit of my Constitutional Right to Happiness', noted the Scholarly Politician who is publicly appealing to the White House to protect him from "Witch-Hunting - Political Terrorists"; "Enemies of Democracy"; "Enemies of Freedom: and "Enemies of Liberty" whether they are operating in Ghana or in the United States of America - the proverbial Land of the Free and Home for the Brave.
"Folks, Evil is Real !!!", the Politician again quoted one of President George Bush's famous lines to describe his ordeals of politically-motivated persecutions in the hands of a [few] individuals, once again, (without the knowledge of the White House).
"Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death", the Politician quoted a legendary American Independence and Revolutionary Hero to sum up his quest to be free from persecutions, pleading with the Leader of the Free World, President George Bush to talk to the ruling President of Ghana, President John Agyekum Kufuor to end his State-Sponsored persecutions and injustices against him, and also, pleading to President George Bush to warn former Military Junta Leader, Jerry John Rawlings and Major (Retired) Boakye Djan who executed former Heads of State and Army Generals in Ghana, especially, the brave Okatakyie Akwasi Amankwa Afrifas and the beloved Real Admiral Joy Amedume, and under their Military government, women were stripped naked and whipped on their buttocks and private parts, opposing Politicians disappeared, students and the Youth beaten and tortured, to mention but a few.
"After you have warned against the repetition of these brutal injustices and cowardly acts of political terrorism inflicted on brave Ghanaians by the former Military regimes of AFRC and PNDC - (It should be noted that President Kufuor himself once accepted a position from the PNDC Military government), - then the brave people of Ghana can finally forgive and reconcile, with the full assurance that President George Bush would capture former President Jerry John Rawlings; (PNDC-tainted) President John Agyekum Kufuor and Major (Retired) Boakye Djan, like Saddam Hussein, should they terrorize Ghanaians again !!!, the former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate publicly told visiting President George Bush.
IN ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT - "Mayor" tells the following story :
A Presidential Aspirant, perhaps motivated by the recent top news in the World that the head of the Church of England is crusading for the adoption of limited Sharia Laws in Great Britain, is also publicly appealing to Ghana, Britain's former Colony to adopt limited Sharia Laws, specifically designed for Armed Robbers, Murderers, Prostitutes and Corrupt Politicians.
IN ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT, "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor, (who speaks in Parables and Metaphors), and has threatened to go on hunger strike - (if visiting President George Bush does not [symbolically] capture Rawlings and Boakye Djan for executing their own Ghanaian or African brothers during the brutal AFRC days; and also, if Bush does not [symbolically] capture President Kufuor for accepting a position during the equally brutal PNDC Military regime of Jerry John Rawlings) - has expressed concern that there is a possibility that Rawlings, Djan and Kufuor may be contemplating or "plotting" to flee from Ghana to avoid "Symbolic Arrest", before Bush arrives in the Country on Tuesday.
Returning to Sharia Laws, the Politician, using a scenario of what could happen in a Sharia Court, explained that His Excellency, President John Agyekum Kufuor who once accepted a position from the PNDC Military government of Rawlings could be given a (suspended sentence for good behaviour) - in view of the fact that he resigned from the PNDC government, or in the worst scenario, the Sharia Judge could subject him to receive 100 lashes, whereas a Sharia Judge could impose the maximum sentence of Capital Punishment, such as "public beheading" on Rawlings and Boakye Djan who actually committed murders.
The Politician explained that since under limited Sharia Laws, families of murdered victims could save the murderers from execution through open or formal forgiveness, former Military Junta Leader, Jerry John Rawlings, and Major (Retired) Boakye Djan who murdered former Heads of State and Army Generals such as the brave Okatakyie Akwasi Amankwa Afrifa and the beloved Real Admiral Joy Amedume could be (sparred) from facing the gallows - if the families of the executed Heads of State and Army Generals forgive them in writing.
"Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah Boateng, popularly known by Ghanaians around the World as "Kwame Mayor", a former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate who is aspiring to become the first democratically elected Ghanaian-American President of Ghana, has again, publicly urged President George Bush, Leader of the Free World, to send a powerful message when he arrives in Ghana that "Political Terrorists" who terrorize other Politicians such as those who have abused their offices to persecute, torture, humiliate and (consistently stolen his powerful ideas - with the sole aim of obstructing his Political Career), and "Coup Terrorists" will one day face justice in the hands of Allied Forces, United Nations, African Union Government or in the hands of the Judicial system in Spain which has International Jurisdiction over un-conscionable injustices and Crimes Against Humanity. !!!".
"Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah Boateng, (Kwame Mayor) however, has publicly said that President Kufuor is more democratic than former President Jerry John Rawlings, whereas Rawlings is more fair-minded than Kufuor, urging President Bush to tamper Justice with Mercy.
"Deep inside me, I have forgiven President Kufuor, Rawlings and Boakye Djan. However, I have a moral obligation to continue to expose them to Human Conscience !!!", said the Non-Violent (Peace) Activist.
The former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate still laments that "No Prophet is acceptable in his own Kingdom !!!" and insists that His Excellency, President John Agyekum Kuffuor's government has stolen too many of his ideas some of which have become Monumental in Ghana - (Yet, President Kufuor has never given him any credit !!!), and to add insult to injury, President Kufuor, Hon. Kwadwo Mpiani and Hon. Stephen Asamoah Boateng abused their offices and turned against him, amid unprecedented Politically Motivated Persecution; Gross Injustice and Individually-Taylored Human Rights abuses against him unprecedented in the annals of Modern Political Civilization !!!.
Touching on his infamous "Political Show Trial" in Los Angeles, the Politician said he has reason to believe that a [few] rogue elements in USA, operating (absolutely without the knowledge of the Civilized and Democratic government of United States of America), may have collaborated with other rogue elements in Ghana's Government to harass him without any tangible reason - referring to a letter dated March 02, 2004 by the United States Embassy in Accra - (Consulate Division), in a matter in which he was a Party, captioned : "Resolution of Issues and Apology" which the Embassy sent copies to Ghana's Ministry of Information and Ministry of Interior.
"Who was the Deputy Minister of Ghana's Ministry of Information in March of 2004 when I was subjected into Witch-Hunting ?", the Scholarly Politician asked ?
"And who was the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Information in late 2003 when Television coverage of the proceedings of the National Reconciliation Commission (NRC) was abruptly cut off when I appeared before the Commission to offer tesimony ?", the Politician asked sarcastically.
" Folks, Hon. Stephen Asamoah Boateng, my own Childhood Neighbour and High School Mate turned ("Judas") against me as President John Agyekum Kufuor utilized him for some of his covert and overt "dirty political operations", and there is more evidence to provide at the appropriate time.
"The United States has a Moral and Legal duty to strike hard at targets that terrorize Ghanaian-Americans", warned the former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate and interim President of Coalition of Naturalized American Citizens and Legal Residents, who is volunteering for Barack Obama for America. " I have sufficient evidence to conclude that in 2004, elements from Ghana government inquired from the United States Embassy in Accra, whether I caused havoc in America, as a Junior Consular reportedly, falsely and maliciously accused me --- that I "caused havoc in America" - for running for Mayor of Los Angeles as the first Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate", said the Civil Rights Legendary Crusader.
" I also have sufficient evidence to rationally conclude that elements from Ghana's government inquired from the United States' Embassy in Accra whether I was a member of Al-Queda - since a Political Terrorist(s) or Enemies of Democracy, Enemies of Freedom, and Enemies of Human Rights had sent me hateful emails falsely and maliciously accusing me of that taboo on or around 2003", said the Scholarly Politician.
" The harassments I have personally endured and continue to endure in the hands of a [few] Political Terrorists who have no Human Conscience, and who are obstructing my Natural, Constitutional and Civil Rights to the Pursuit of Happiness, provide substantial evidence that : "Folks, Evil is Real !!!", the Politician quoted the famous words of President George Bush.
"The fact that United States Embassy in Accra, (Consulate Division) sent copies of its March 02, 2004 letter - "Resolution of Issues And Apology" to Ghana's Ministry of Information and Ministry of Interior speak volumes !!!, charged "America's Mandela" - former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate and a Civil Rights Icon.
"I hope the World understands why I continue to use the Legendary Mahatma Gandhi and the Legendary Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr's strategies of Powerful; Peaceful and Non-Violent methods to continue to challenge the conscience of those who have always terrorized my life without cause !!!", explained the highly sophisticated Intellectual.
The Great Grandson of Asante Adonteng Puduo Anti-Colonialism War Generals and Royals, called President Kuffuor's politically-motivated injustices against him "Cruel and Un-Usual Punishment !!!"; "Absolutely Un-Christian"; "Gross Cultural Deviation of Ghanaians' Fair-Minded Cultural Values" and in particular, a "Serious Deviation of Asante Tolerant and Impartial Traditional Values bestowed upon us by King Osei Tutu I and Nana Okomfo Anokye who taught us to treat [all] People with Fairness and Justice !!!" - Traditional Values which still frown on all forms of Injustice, and more importantly, a "Cruel Deviation of the Norms of Traditional African Values !!!" which frown on Extraordinary Injustices, Callousness or Deliberate or Calculated Cold-Heartedness !!!".
"Once again, President Kuffuor does not appreciate and does not understand the Language of Non-Violent (Peaceful Resistance) - based on the empirical evidence that for almost Seven (7) years, he has arrogantly failed to address the concerns and the Cruel and Inhuman punishment meted against "Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor, a Political Legend and Civil Rights Icon in his own right !!!", said the Charismatic Politician whose support transcends from Compton; Watts and New York in USA; Kumasi, Accra, Tamale, Ho, Cape Coast, Bolgatanga, Koforidua, Sunyani, etc, etc in Ghana; Lagos in Nigeria; Addis Ababa in Ethiopia to Soweto, South Africa.
" President Kuffuor's continuous deprivation of the Human Rights; Civil Rights; and Natural Rights of Kwame Mayor will be resisted in "Dr. Martin Luther King's style of Civilized and Peaceful (Non-Violent) Resistance; Sit-Inns, Boycotts and "We Shall Overcome Songs" !!!", warned the "People's Politician" who has hinted that [if] the government continues its covert and overt oppression against him and derail his Natural Right to participate in the Civilized Democratic process, or [if] the government turns the Nation into a "State Sponsored Terrorizing State", he would be left with no other choice than to proclaim himself the "People's President" - in terms of his Strategic Ideas which have benefited the Nation, in order to protect and defend Democracy, Freedom and Liberty !!!.
"President George Bush and Members of the United States Congress especially, the Congressional Black Caucus should hold talks directly with President Kuffuor to stop his Extraordinary Anti Ghanaian-American and Gross Injustices against me", said the Pro-American Democracy Activist who is on record for argueing intellectually that Ghana should allow the United States to build a Military Post in Ghana to among other things, help prevent Civil Wars; deter Coups; fight Terrorism on African Soil, etc - ( and in exchange, the United States should allow Africa to emerge a Super Power, especially, "Civilian Super Power !!!").
" Osagyefo" Kwame Mayor has the right to mobilise World Opinion to symbolically defend himself against any [Act of State Sponsored Terrorism !!!]", warned "AMERICA"S MANDELA" - the "Made in America Politician" who once stood up Mightily against a [few] Political Terrorists in America who, (without the knowledge of the Civilized Democratic Government of the White House, put him on a long and un-Conscionable [Political Show Trial !!!] in Los Angeles, but were Morally and Ethically defeated - (Sincere thanks to President Bill Clinton's White House which ordered the United States' Justice Department to investigate allegations of Politically Motivated Persecution and despicable Politically Motivated Torture inflicted upon the first Ghanaian-American to run for a higher public office in the history of America - since America's Independence from Great Britain in 1776 and also, the first Ghanaian born to symbolically run for Mayor of Los Angeles in 1993.
" I am on record for reviving or re-inventing Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's concept of a Continental African Union Government or United African States (UAS) when I sent you, President Kuffuor a registered letter in Ghana in 2005, (Receipt Number 00096) and also, a registered letter to Libya's President Muammar Qaddafi, (Receipt Number 00027), calling for the formation of a Continental African Government to be called "United African States", [UAS] and also, calling for a "Shadow Government" towards such a Continental African Government, "Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah Boateng reminded His Excellency, President John Agyekum Kuffuor.
The "People's Politician", whose call for "Dual Citizenship" for blacks in the Diaspora at the time when Hon. Spio Gabrah was Ghana's Ambassador to America when he sent copies of his Political Platform to Ghana's Embassy in Washington, D.C. which without doubt, eventually sparked the idea of "Dual Citizenship" in Ghana, and the same Politician whose letter to His Excellency, President John Agyekum Kuffuor and to the Protocol's office in Ghana with a copy to the office of the former Speaker of Parliament, Hon. Peter Ala Adjetey, eventually ignited the "ROPA Law" again, asked Ghanaians and Africans to always respect the "Ancestral Rights" of African-Americans, Caribbeans and other blacks in the Diaspora in Africa - noting that "They (African-Americans and Caribbeans, etc,) were taken from Africa against their will, yet, they still remain our biological brothers and sisters".
"It is the Gospel Truth that "Osagyefo" Kwame (Appiah) Boateng, has been the "Brain Power of Powerful Ideas in Ghana !!!" - some of the Monumental Ideas in Ghana which President Kuffuor's government has always taken the full credit and has never given me any credit --- whether it is "Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah Boateng's idea of "importing South Africa's Model of Truth and Reconciliation Commission to Ghana"; the idea of building a "State of the Art" Presidential Palace in Ghana to attract Tourism like the White House, the idea of erecting Statutes for the Martyred Judges in Ghana, the idea of allowing Ghanaians living abroad to register to vote, which eventually culminated into "Ropa Law", the idea of granting "Dual Citizenship" to blacks in the Diaspora, the idea of re-inventing Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's call for a Continental African Union Government of which Ghana's Postal Office's mailed letters in 2005 - (registration receipt number 00027 to the office of Libya's President and registration receipt number 00096 to the office of President Kuffuor"), "Osagyefo" once again reminded the Nation.
"Folks, whereas his Excellency President Kuffuor is the legitimate President of Ghana in view of powers vested in him through a democratic election, the reality is that I, "Osagyefo Kwame Appiah Boateng am the "De-Facto President of Ghana, in terms of Monumental Ideas !!!" - since His Excellency, President Kuffuor's government has for years been ruling with some of my Great Ideas which have dictated policy directions in Ghana", said the "Made-In-America Politician", dubbed "AMERICA'S MANDELA"; a Democratic Activist and Civil Rights Icon in his own Right, who aims at transforming Africa's Nightmarish Experiences into an "African Dream", modelled after the proverbial "American Dream ". " I am the De-Facto President of Ghana - (in terms of my Powerful and Monumental Ideas which have significantly benefited Ghana and Africa in general"), "Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah Boateng whose Great Grand Fathers courageously fought against Colonialism and Imperialism perpetuated by "Our European White Brothers and White Sisters" on African Soil --- said all that he needs is the "Financial Power" to compliment his "Brain Power" as well as "People's Power" to enable him to lead Ghana and the rest of Africa through Democratic elections and contribute to building infrastructures of Democracy, Freedom and Liberty in Africa. " Ghana and the rest of Africa need a Statute of Liberty in a future Continental African Union Government that should guarantee Multi-Party Democracy, Freedom and Liberty and above all, guarantee an "African Dream !!!", modelled after the proverbial "American Dream" -and not an "African Nightmare !!!", reminded the Politician formerly called "Kwame Mayor". " How many people know the Gospel Truth that it was my idea of (re-inventing) Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's dream of a Continental African Union Government of which "Radio King", Mr. Kwame Adinkrah of Angel FM, formerly at Fox FM in Kumasi, Ashanti Region, announced the objectives of my abortive Yaa Asantewaa Demonstration / cum "Africa Positive Action Demonstration" [in 2005] during which I called for a Continental African Union Government to be called "United African States" [UAS] and a "Shadow Government" towards a Continental African Union Government - was the sole reason why His Excellency, President Agyekum Kuffuor's government eventually invited African leaders this year, [2007] to Accra to discuss about the formation of African Union Government ?", the Charismatic Politician asked !!!. Highlighting the significant role he has played in shaping and directing some key policies in Ghana, the Man who calls himself the "Greatest Politician of all times" - in the same way as the Legendary Mohammad Ali is celebrated as the "Greatest Boxer of all times" reminded Ghanaians : " Whereas I invited the Legendary Nelson Mandela, Winnie Mandela, President John Agyekum Kuffuor, Libya's President, Muammar Qaddafi, etc, as far back in [2005], via registered letters to attend my abortive "African Positive Action Demonstration" or "Yaa Asantewaa Demonstration" - to "Proclaim among other things, the formation of United African States (UAS), a Continental African Union Government and urge African Leaders to immediately form a ["Shadow Government"] under this Continental Union Government", it should be noted that it was my idea that influenced President John Agyekum Kuffuor's government to eventually invite African Leaders to Ghana in [2007] to discuss about forming Africa's Continental Union Government, and in view of the Naked Truth, why is it that President Kuffuor's government officials cannot be bold and men enough to give me credit, since the President and his men themselves enjoy taking Credit ?, the Politician asked. " And whereas another objective of mine in [2005], under the Yaa Asantewaa Demonstration cum "Africa Positive Action Demonstration" stated : "To Protest Against Harsh Impositions by World Economic Powers on Ghana which are root causes of Economic and Political woes facing the Country" - logically prompted President Kuffuor's Government to eventually announce that the government of Ghana had "weaned itself from IMF ....", why is it that President Kuffuor's government officials cannot be bold and men enough to give me credit, since the President and his men themselves enjoy taking Credit ?, the Politician asked - daring President Kuffuor's government to arrest him if what he has been saying about him all these years are not the truth and nothing but the truth !!!, and criticised the government of former President Jerry John Rawlings whose legacy of atrocities paved the way for President Kuffuor to emerge as the President of Ghana. " Once again, it is Jerry John Rawlings' unprecedented atrocities and Human Rights abuses which impregnated an arrogant, selfish and greedy government of His Excellency, President John Agyekum Kuffuor, said the Pro-American Democracy Activist and a Royal Politician on his Campaign Website : WWW.KwameforPresident.Com .
"Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, said that the conscience(s) of those who do us evil must never be allowed to slumber !!!", and based on this great Philosophical School of Thought, I will continue to wake up the consciences of former President Jerry John Rawlings, Major(Retired) Boakye Djan, President John Agyekum Kufuor, Hon. Kwadwo Mpiani, Hon. Stephen Asamoah Boateng, etc.
"Folks, Evil is Real !!!", the Politician again quoted one of President George Bush's famous lines to describe his ordeals of politically-motivated persecutions.
