This Alliance can work if we can educate our people that this is the beginning of a united approach, a reculturing of our politics. The PPP Jagdeoite is only looking to coalesce with those who can give them big kickbacks. Although a minority govt, it did not reach out to the PNC or AFC.
This coalition, while not perfect, is the only way to defeat the wickedness going on now. Help people understand that the PPP Jagdeoite is not an Indian party working for the working poor Indians. PPP Jagdeoite is a party working for the parasitic new bourgeoisie. Where the poor people live, the water is red and not drinkable and sometimes not good for washing clothes - only good for flushing the toilets. Where the working poor lives, the roads and streets are bad and the drains have not been dug for a long time. The new big shot PPP leaders did not take care of communities where their supporters live. So let's help people understand that it's every race punishing, because the PPP Jagdeoite is now a big shot party, it is not the PPP Jaganite.
well said
this is what soi disant 'supporters of change' should be getting behind rather than wringing their hands idly and unproductively while cussing the AFC
this is an act of courage by Moses Nagamootoo and the AFC, with the potential to be even more transformative than the entry of the AFC on the scene 2 election cycles ago
yes . . . COURAGE! something shockingly lacking in the character of some on this BB who like to puff themselves up and talk plenty
Redux, that utopian lack of courage is called living in reality.
dumb animals live "in reality" where courage is not an issue and are content
people with "courage" question that reality and do things to change it for the better
which camp are you in?
Redux, I wish I could call you a hero; a man of insight; and so on; but alas, you remind me of College days when we think we know how the world will be. In fact all we knew was how the world should be.
In as much as I may be like most people on this Board who want to see the backs of this PPP, I am cautioned by some facts and some history.
Voting is ultimately about racial alliances in 2015. Nothing in the demographics or emigration pattern or the PPP's theft of State assets in an oligarchic orgy points to a new voting dynamic. Armed with this I look at the history of the voting patterns of the PPP and PNC with the advent of a 3rd party aimed at the discontents of the other two. The PPP consistently beat the PNC by 5 to 10 percentage margins and with youthful lethargy and stay-at-home disenchanted souls that ain't likely to change in 2015. The 3rd party's history is an interesting one. The AFC's greatest successes have not been to pry away PNC's votes; rather it is about extracting as many votes from the PPP as possible. This success was strengthened greatly by Moses Nagamootoo entrenching himself with the AFC's assault on the PPP.
Then came the AFC's seminal change of character. It believes it can continue its erosion of the dastardly PPP party by becoming submerged in the polity of the PNC-dominated APNU. This more than anything else reverted the change from not thinking binary in voting. The momentum has swung backwards and the PPP is now chanting game on!
Palliatives like dumb animals and people of courage are not likely to make my comments irrelevant. Maybe after the May elections you would have graduated from the school of reality.
you are the one who chose to trot down the 'philosophical' road with your "living in reality" smartypants comment
i simply responded in kind and raised u several
yesss . . . u were sophomoric to start it in the first place; doesn't feel good to be slapped down, huh?
and, btw, where do u get this crazy idea that anybody here is posting shyte on GNI looking for your approbation . . . "hero," "man of insight" and so on?
lol . . . har har harrr
