Veteran journalist April Ryan interviews President Barack Obama aboard Air Force One enroute to South Africa.

On a flight to South Africa, President Barack Obama sat down with veteran journalist April Ryan to discuss the future of Africa ? on cultural, economic and healthcare fronts ? and the continent?s relationship with the United States.

During the brief interview, the POTUS touched on the legacy of ailing revolutionary hero Nelson Mandela, the potential of a cure for HIV/AIDS, and the competition between the U.S. and China for position on what he called the ?youngest? continent.

President Obama reiterated that African youth were poised to usher in an era of self-sustainability and prosperity for the continent, but that it is necessary to build an infrastructure around them to facilitate their success.
