Honoring Mandela

As former South Africa President, Nelson Mandela, and his wife, Graca Machel Mandela, look at a 9-foot bronze statue of himself in London, England, South African's gaze and adore the statue along with shouting for joy. Nelson Mandela is among Britain's most respected heroes, along with Abraham Lincoln and Winston Chuchill. Nelson Mandela thinks of it as a symbol for all those who resisted oppression. Nelson Mandela also said that in 1962 that he and several other South Africans fled to London inearch of money, training, and support.

Nelson Mandela is one of my admirers. After I read online about him, he just changed my views about presidents.
