Ghana Life: An American Bushman in Tamale
In a developing country like Ghana, there were many projects in the 1970s and 1980s funded by overseas development agencies. These invariably employed one or two expatriate experts who were intended to pass on their skills to local co-workers. Most of these American and European consultants were hard working and dedicated people who found a way to work harmoniously with their Ghanaian colleagues. A few, however, fell short of these standards, and some displayed ill manners that won them the appellation ‘bushman.’ This is how one young Ghanaian engineer, Kwame Mainu, met such an expatriate bushman for the first time.
As always in Tamale progress was slow, but Kwame managed to keep things moving forward for several weeks until the new manager arrived. The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) must have had great difficulty in finding a replacement for Frank Johnson because from the outset it was obvious that the new man was not of the same calibre. A white American in late middle age, Jim Connell was betrayed by his speech. Hardly able to form a grammatical sentence and using expletives for punctuation he seemed to see his mission as persuading the natives that there were also bushmen in America. Kwame was shocked. All the foreign advisers and volunteers he had previously met had impressed him with their good manners and correct speech. Now here was a representative of God’s Own Country who expressed in his demeanour all the frustration of an unemployed school drop-out.

The Eyeglasses Of President John F Kennedy, Loved Leader Of The American People
Being the most-loved President in American history, John F. Kennedy is remembered not only for his dedication to the office of the President but also his desire to win the hearts and stir the hope of the American people. Through the years many items that he owned personally, or gave away as gifts, have become part of both public and private collections across the U.S.
Great weight is given to a President’s eyeglasses (a.k.a. reading glasses) because they give some bearing of what kind of life that particular President lived, and to an extent, some of the things that were important to him in the way he saw the world. Due to the meticulous care in locating John F. Kennedy’s eyeglasses, they have been located by a private collector in the United States, who eventually acquired, additionally, the eyeglasses of the late Senator Robert F. Kennedy and the late Ted Kennedy as well.
