A fitting tribute

Nelson Mandella was a great man, had a wonderful life, and spread his goodness throughout the world, and died at a time, when there was a void on television. After today, I will know more about him at the end of this day, than anyone, dead or alive.

He was remarkable, but, 24 hours a day, on TV, is a fitting tribute to him. I am sure he is deserving of each accolade he receives. Four presidents from the USA will be in attendance, two of them, I think, deserve to be there, two, when doing comparisons with the life of Mandella, will fail. I am assuming that Mandella never cheated on his wife, or was considered to be a liar.

One of our presidents embarrassment will show, one will not.
