Joel Barkan, a CSIS senior associate, was quoted by CNN.com, "Bush, First Lady Promote Low-Tech Health Solution in Africa."
President George W. Bush focused on a low-tech way to save the lives of African children Monday as he and first lady Laura Bush toured a Tanzanian clinic. . .
The visit is "basically an effort to celebrate successes," said Joel Barkan of the Center for Strategic and International Studies. Many Americans picture Africa as the "continent of gloom and doom," but Barkan said the president's message is one of "making progress."
