[sMASH]

can monky man be AG?

Monkey Man for AG...

yeah,

... ape general!



but seriously, the problem is not having a good party or having good people in a party.

the problem we have is the majority voters are still too ole and schupid. and the system of winner takes all.

remember COP got about 25% of the votes when times were good, and not a seat.
so, u need something more proportional, where u if u get a significant amount of votes, u get some sort of say proportional to that amount of national support.

the next tthing is the voters who decide which party wins either vote unc or pnm.
when they die out, we can have policy driven voting and not tribal voting.

but again, we should have proportional representation. because not all of one party's policies may be the right thing to do.


we have plenty options available though. COP is still on life support, ILP is still here, NJAC jumps out when they feel to, the all trinidad sugar workers, (sp) have their own political anti unc party, NCT by nalini dial, DDP by some fella name harlod leqroi or sumting.
ent the unions had one too?

the problem is not more options, the problem is to get them into office, and not have all decisions decided by majority.
then there are the ones in tobago.

[vaiostation]

I does want to support third parties but I have yet to meet a genuine individual or party that actually thinks beyond their own selfish gain.

"It's a common grumble that politicians' lifestyles are far removed from those of their electorate. Not so in Uruguay. Meet the president - who lives on a ramshackle farm and gives away most of his pay.
Laundry is strung outside the house. The water comes from a well in a yard, overgrown with weeds. Only two police officers and Manuela, a three-legged dog, keep watch outside.
This is the residence of the president of Uruguay, Jose Mujica, whose lifestyle clearly differs sharply from that of most other world leaders.
President Mujica has shunned the luxurious house that the Uruguayan state provides for its leaders and opted to stay at his wife's farmhouse, off a dirt road outside the capital, Montevideo.
The president and his wife work the land themselves, growing flowers.
This austere lifestyle - and the fact that Mujica donates about 90% of his monthly salary, equivalent to $12,000 (£7,500), to charity - has led him to be labelled the poorest president in the world."

The president of Uruguay has been nominated for this year's Nobel Peace Prize. According to his advocates, José “Pepe” Mujica's much talked-about marijuana legalization is in fact "a tool for peace and understanding."

For the second year in a row, the Drugs Peace Institute, which has supported Mujica’s marijuana legalization drive since 2012, insisting that the consumption of marijuana should be protected as a human right, has endorsed his candidacy, along with members of Mujica's leftwing political party the Frente Amplio, the PlantaTuPlanta (Collective of Uruguayan growers) and the Latin American Coalition of Cannabis Activists (CLAC).

Despite an avalanche of global criticism, in late December Uruguay became the first country in the world to fully legalize the production and sale of the popular herbal drug. Under the new law, which comes into full effect in early April, Uruguayans will have several options to gain access to it.

The Drugs Peace Institute said that Mujica’s stand against the UN-led prohibition of mind-altering substances is a "symbol of a hand outstretched, of a new era in a divided world."

It doesnt hafta be UWI people

I prefer have a party with innovative people.. level common sense, who learnt on their own by experience, not by copy and paste on google.

We can have a big discussion on this, cause I really do have a plan to take the country forward, but.. we need help

[MrSennin]

See that is how become a legend, and leave behind a legacy. See how he live. Aint even need no bodyguard. Lining up and waiting in general hospital like normal. Live with the people and know their struggle and do the best you can to alleviate their strains with Good Decisions. Politicians forget that is what they there for. Most there are really psychopaths for power so every day they dream of themselves being 'king', not building a better nation. They dont know where to begin to become a true leader.

NAR was voted in when people got fed up, fixed the place (somewhat) and voted back out never to be heard of again.
