Everyone's personal favorite in the US seems to be Botswana for various reasons. From what I've read, Tanzania is also a very nice place. Unfortunately nice, in many cases, seems to be equivalent to "doesn't have the transportation infrastructure necessary" for the tens of thousands of fans. South Africa, rife with several of Africa's largest problems, is, for better or worse, the one who gets tapped for representation.

I've been reading a lot of foreign aid stuff recently, and the largest complaint that I see from them is that there's a complete ignorance of that fact that, in some places, Africa seems to be working. I'm hoping that at least some of that will show up in the cup.
