Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I whakaatu a Perehitini Barack Obama he tino rongonui ia i Jamaica i te Taite. Ko nga mano puta noa i te whenua i whakanui i a Perehitini Obama i a ia e tu ana i nga waahi maha, a, ko ia te perehitini o Amerika ki te toro atu ki te motu motu mai i te Perehitini Ronald Reagan i te 1982. A, te āhua nei kāore he tangata i tino harikoa, i tino miharo rānei, i te Pirimia o Jamaica, a Portia Simpson Miller. Panuku ki raro mō ngā ataata. Ko te Perehitini o Barack Obama (i runga ake nei me te Pirimia a Portia Simpson Miller) te perehitini tuatahi ki te toro ki Jamaica mai i te Perehitini o Ronald Reagan i te 1982 i te Rāpare. I kii te Pirimia o Simpson Miller ki te Perehitini o Obama e arohaina ana ia e nga taangata o tona whenua, a e aroha ana hoki ia ki a ia. 'Kei te hiahia noa ahau ki te korero ki a koe, kaore pea koe e mohio, engari he nui te aroha ki a koe i tenei whenua,' i kii te Pirimia Minita Simpson Miller ki te Perehitini Obama. 'Kei te hiahia noa ahau ki te kii he pai te aroha ki a koe i Jamaica. Na, ko te mea tuatahi ka taea e au te mea ki a koe i te aroaro o te iwi, 'E aroha ana ahau ki a koe.' I kii a Simpson Miller e tumanako ana ia i mohio a Obama ki te hiranga o tana haerenga ki Jamaica. 'He tino harikoa ki te toro atu ki Jamaica, e mohiotia ana mo tona ataahua me te wairua whakaharahara o ona iwi,' i tuhituhi a Obama i a ia e haina ana i te pukapuka manuhiri i Jamaica House, kei reira nga tari o te Pirimia me ana kaimahi. 'Kia mau tonu te whanaungatanga hohonu me te pumau i waenganui i ō tātou iwi mō ngā whakatupuranga e haere ake nei.' I mātakitaki ngā kaiwhakatere o Jamaica a Usain Bolt (māui) me Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce (matau) i a Peresideni Obama i a ia e kōrero ana i te whare taone nui. I tono hoki te kaiārahi o Jamaica ki te Perehitini o Obama ki te whakakore i te kaiārahi o te iwi pango a Marcus Garvey, i whakawakia i te US mo te tinihanga mēra i nga tau 1920. Ko te Pirimia o Simpson Miller e kii ana i korero ia ki a Obama ko te 'he hiahia nui o te kawanatanga me te iwi o Jamaica' kia whakawatea a Garvey i te whakapae hara a te US i peia ai ia ki Jamaica i te tau 1927. E ai ki a ia i tono ia ki a Obama kia 'whakaaro i te take, me te tuku i tetahi tautoko i roto i tana mana.' Ko Garvey te tangata tuatahi i whakaingoatia hei toa motu o Jamaica whai muri i te mana motuhake o te motu i te tau 1962. I mate ia i te tau 1940....
Ko te Perehitini o Barack Obama te Perehitini tuatahi i toro atu ki Jamaica mai i te Perehitini o Ronald Reagan i te 1982 i te Rāpare. Ko te Pirimia a Portia Simpson Miller i whakapehapeha ki a Perehitini Obama, i tetahi wa ka kii atu ki a ia 'E aroha ana ahau ki a koe' I tohu a Perehitini Obama i te Rāhoroi i a ia e korero ana i Jamaica ka tangohia e ia a Cuba mai i te raarangi a te US o nga whenua tautoko i te riri. I a ia e whakarite ana ki te kai tahi ki te Perehitini o Cuba a Raul Castro i te Paraire i te Huihuinga o Amerika i Panama. I uru tahi te tokorua ki te ringaringa i te tangihanga o Nelson Mandela i te tau 2013, i riri ai etahi o nga Amerikana. Inanahi i tutaki te Minita o te Kawanatanga a John Kerry ki te Minita o waho o Cuba a Bruno Rodriguez i te hotera o Panama City.
