Vish, Jagdeo had a Press Conference this morning explaining the process. Please take a look.

Any you don't see a problem with that? What are you saying about the rest of the party if Jagdeo has to explain to them?

The others in the party doan have the smarts.

Nehru posted:

Why dont you listen before you make a fool of yourself. Your question/assumption can be cleared up.

I don't have to listen. Your statement says enough. The party is Jagdeo and Jagdeo is the party.

HEHEHE How many Goat heads on GNI, too many to count!! Bloody Idiots spewing their Garbage as Facts!!!

Why don't you stop your ignorant, limited vocabulary ranting for a minute and think. What you're basically saying is that the PPP is incapable of thinking for themselves. Is this the image you want the opposition to have?

How can a party with several hundred thousand members, various MPs, a 35 member Central Committee among other committees be "the party is jagdeo and jagdeo is the party?"

So here's my question for all you smart people here:

Why should Jagdeo be "allowed" to "select" the criteria for the next PPP leader.?

Why cant the party make a democratic decision on the criteria, then vote on he most credible candidate? Dat so difficult?  

 

 

There is no such thing as selecting a criteria for the next PPP leader. The candidate is selected by the Central Committee. Each person's personal criteria is determined the person they choose.

It is difficult because the PPP party machinery is based on their old commie principles where the leader is "selected" not elected. Janet flout the party "law" and mek sheself president when Cheddi died. Then she "select" Jagdeo. Yuh undastand now?

The PPP has not abandoned communism. They still address one another as "comrade" and stick to the old Lenin / Stalin shit. Why else you think one of their ministers cuss down the American Ambassador at his own residence in a tasteless, tactless display and then flounce sheself out?

A lot of the old PPP people (some post here) still love communism and socialism.

In fairness, I think the PNC also has some poppycock show they put on (not sure) to get their leader. But it's not based on ideology. Guyana is a comedy show bai.

Lack of governance.  But then again, didn’t Obama pick Hillary.  Now, look wuh happen!!

Jagdeo ran for President in two General Elections and won both.  Guyana's constitution does not allow for the selection of a President.  Janet was already on her death bed, feeble and weak.

You are correct that he won 2 elections. My point was that he was handpicked (selected) by the PPP leadership. You made the same point in an earlier post re the Central committee.

How else should it work?  I assume the look at electability.

Obama may have given a nod to Hillary, but there was a process - the primaries. And old man Bernie almost cleaned Hillary's clock if it wasn't for Hillary's $$. There is no process in selection of the PPP candidate. Central committee doesn't just give a nod, they blatantly "select". They don't even have to deal with Big Purple firing a shot in the process.

I knew you would go there.  But Guyana don’t have the critical mass or bench strength for such a process.  We followed the British formula.  

The process will work.  Without a doubt, bj is the strong man in the ppp.  

Baseman posted:

Ideally the PPP voters should pick the candidate, but I don't think the logistics exist to support that. A number of factors should be taken into account - electability (as you mentioned), qualifications, and a host of intangibles. And there ought to be a vote (which exists in name only).

Mind you - the entire process for BOTH parties needs to be radically changed. Guyanese talk a lot about "democracy" but they ain't too tolerant of opposing views.

This is not true.  The 35 members of the Central Committee each cast a vote to choose their candidate by secret ballot.   Where are you getting this crazy information from?  Have you read the PPP constitution because it stipulates the voting process very clearly?

Yes, there is a "voting process",  but in my view it's a sham. These 35 guys are essentially told who to vote for. This is what I'm referring to. The decision is already made. Judging from Mr. Jagdeo's comments it looks like that's exactly what he'll be doing too.

GT, I believe that this is the world in which Politicians and Preachers exist. They behave like they are the only ones with the answers and everyone else cannot think or act on their own. Jagdeo is a player of that strange world and behaves accordingly. That is why I don't subject myself to these kinds of people or anyone else that seek to create some level of superiority over others.

Correct, the system didn't create the main problem - the race issue. That has existed for over 50 years. But it certainly exacerbates the problem, don't you think? And it's a bastardized Westminster system to boot. It's time to put an end to "black man rule" and "coolie man rule". Hopefully people within the 2 major parties have had enough of the old time politics and will see things differently down the road. The younger they are, the better.

Why then are you complaining about me wasting everybody's time? I post on GNI according to the time I am willing to spend not what anyone else wish. You seem quite conflicted in how you spend your time.

And don't fool yourself. You don't know me nor do I know you and your existence is meaningless to me so is your opinion. Now you can still bow out (can't say gracefully because you have already squandered that opportunity) or continue embarrassing yourself.

That is what the Coalition government promised to do during the 2015 elections campaign but as soon as the elections were over, they dropped that promised as Granger resorted to the wicked ways of his idol Burnham. Nowadays, he make regular pilgrimages to Burnham's grave to get Burnham's blessings. And instead of focusing on the broken promises of the Coalition government, their supporters are more bent on commenting on what the PPP did in the past or may do in the future.
