What I did not see in Mr. Santorum's letter is what responsibility and accountability the recipient African (or other) countries have to guarantee that the Am. funds will go to meet the goals specified and not end up as personal funds for dictators and corrupt governments. I also did not see that slave-trading African countries will have to end slavery in order to receive funds paid for by Am. taxpayers. I also did not see any justification for the fact that of all the foreign aid given to African countries by America and other countries during the last 40+ years that these countries are worse off now than they were then. Someone is not asking the right questions; we who are supporting these programs deserve to know how our money is protected. (Obviously, not.)
