What a crock of crap! The Marxist SOB was a mass murderer and a terrorist that created a NEW apartheid that stole from and imprisoned blacks as well as whites.
Here we have a pretend president that calls the NRA terrorists,and then goes on tv and rants and raves about what a gentle and great man this Marxist murderer was. Nelson "Flaming Necktie" Mandela should have died 30+ years ago.
