We've seen the changes wrought by the Arab Spring. Well there is a groundswell of change to the old race-fear, insulting and amateurish governance.
Guyana has grown up. With a declining racial base the PPP looks like going the way of the Republicans when it comes to national elections. The electorate looks at it and say "whaaat!!!!".
There's the smell and look of fresh green and gold - the bloody red looks stained and ready to be laundered (taken to the cleaners). I said that when the campaign started and the AFC made this a binary choice (black and coolie) the PPP went to work. Then a transformation took place - Moses Nagamootoo (feared and reviled by the PPP) galvanized not only his party but made the stay-at-home-don't-care Blacks feel like they could pull this one out. So I got me thinking this is now a close race. But when you look at Bartica and Vreed-en-Hoop you have to wonder if this thing is not getting away from the PPP.
A people get to a point of fed-up, enough already......and that's what I'm beginning to discern from Diaspora land. This age of social media seems to caught on and transparency looks like seeing the light of day....finally....after 23 years.
