This must be a joke...Right Excellent? We can't have that many heroes what happened to plain old "Sir"

suk teet at this BS

Good luck PM when we still have thousands of Bahamalander's who will not even celebrate our Nation's Independence Day, looking at it as a PLP thing.

Absolutely ludicrous. We have shown through both governments that we have no national heroes worth discussing, except for a few knighted drug dealers...and majority rule has been a failure...our country is in a shambles because our political leaders are worthless. Can we get the Brit's to reclaim us...we can apologize for thinking we can do a better job...maybe?

Personally, I have always held that Comrade Roland T. "Pop" Symonette has never been fairly honored for his contributions to his Bahamaland. I'd say Pop is one who appeals to most whites, blacks and lick-da-brush Bahamalander's. I never could agree with Hubert's whacked assumption that Pop's son Brent could never become Prime Minister cause of his Eleutheran
skin. I also think respect for Milo B. Butler crosses all Bahamalander's skin colors. Most don't realize that Comrades Milo and Pop's were friends, despite their political differences. We can all learn from these two great Comrade sons of Bahamaland.

if you think a "white ' Brent could ever be PM you are either brain dead or just like to disagree w/ everything Hai EVER SAID .The PLP would spread such fear and use such emotive language about slavery and lynching et all ,that long before the election there would be discord and violence ,,come on Tals your smarter than that .

Smarter enough to know that most Bahamalander's if asked would tell you that Comrade Brant has more leadership JuJu Juice in one he fingers than Minnis has running through he entire body. For a party so dependent upon the non-black vote, you sure don't think much of your own red shirts supporters. I pray I never view Bahamalander's out of your rose-colored glasses. Thankfully, the vast majority of Bahamalander's ain't so smudged with such prejudice and bigotry. Never underestimate Comrade Brent. If not Brent, then who. Not Hubert again? Politics makes for a long journey.

I know Brent well having grown up around both he and Graig . The white vote is less than 8% and marginal at best Tals i can guarantee you if a white man of UBP heritage ran as leader of the FNM the PLP,S job would be incredibly easy at stirring the old white bogey man stuff that the FNM WOULD win less then 8 seats .To think any other way is either delusionul or just plan dumb .To win the gov the FNM had to get a black ex PLP from coopers town ,,IT is not bigotry as i am bi racial ,its about feilding a canidate that can sway the electorate ..

didn,t put brant ,,thought you blocked me weasel boy, so you don,t tell the truth from daddies sofa

Should we not be focused on working harder and longer in the hope of emerging from recessionary times, as opposed to working less?!? Maybe if ever this day occurs, we can refer to this truly historic date in history as National Sense Day!

You can bet that this will be one if the deadlines that they do meet.

if you seen our productivity rates compared to others in the region we would have to go to 16 hour work days just to catch up . I pay well but i no longer take jobs where i need more then one helper .I DO home remods ,small pojects .IT is hard to get 3 to 4 hours productivity out of guys now in an 8 hr day .IN the last 3 months i,ve told 3 guys no thanks i can,t use you anymore .Everytime they were out of my sight they are on the cell ph or texting and everytime they tell me its an emergency or its their "right" to the point of wanting to become combative ..i have scaled back no more then me and one helper

HOORAY! Just what this Country needs. Another day of non-productivity! Another day business has to pay our staff to do nothing and hence less money going into the Government coffers. Well done PM! You really know what this country needs most!

Was Hubert ever a real PLP?

No he wasn,t crooked enough ,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Sadly...I agree with Rory on this front...they are all terrible and corrupt...and sadly the masses buy the BS spewing out of their mouths and vote the crooks back in.

Having know Hai all my life through my father i can honestly say he was not corrupt .did he have to give back to his backers ,yes they all do ,but he pissed a lot of "Bay street boys " off by giving contracts to PLP ,s too if they were qualified /..Did he spend too much during the recession ,thats a philishofical question ,sorry for the spelling ,about Kensian economics .Did he make bad decesions ,yes but he is not corrupt .PGC is not corrupt either he just can,t control those around him ..

When the vast number of Bahamalander's think of general and by-elections they think of political corruption. Comrades we're talk'in /FNM's/PLP's/UBP's. To say they have all "won" they votes would be stretching the truth. Corruption is not always about taking bribes. What do you call it when there are obvious signs of giving benefits to those who support them?
