But what I'm saying is..... we cannot just use assumptions and broad conjectures when evaluating Mr. Minnis. We have to at least give the man a chance before we can criticize his performance.
The difference between he and the rest of our previous leaders is that this is actually the first opportunity that he will have to lead.
How would you feel if your job performance was prematurely judge based upon your affiliation with the person that you were replacing??? Would you consider that ethically fair??? I don't think so.
Our country needs a viable "government" at this time. We need a holistic entity. Not random, independent individuals contending with other members of parliament of whose parties they do not belong. If this were to occur, it would only exacerbate the constant bickering already present in the HOA. How would an independent candidate get a Bill passed??? The Bahamas needs a government that's in congruence with one another. You guys are allowing your emotions to affect your better judgement. You guys seemed intoxicated with vexation, and I understand your pain.
I'm by no means saying that we don't need a third party.... because I feel that we do! But with 2017 fast approaching, and the indisputable fact that the PLP needs to go; the FNM is the closest thing to common sense that the Bahamas has right NOW. Not later.... but for NOW.
Who knows??? Maybe by 2022 (Lord's willing) a legitimate third party will be established enough to ignite the confidence of the Bahamian electorate. Then we won't have to deal with the old PLP or FNM for a long time. Hopefully.
If we do this, if we do that, if we go over here, if we go over there, blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Listen...... the word "if" is a conjunction that could take you all over the world and back. Unfortunatley, conjunctions and conjecture is a luxury the Bahamas cannot afford. The PLP needs to go NOW. NOW, is the operative word. And the only practical option at this time to replace the PLP government is the FNM. You can talk as much "ifs" as you like. But the rest of us are grounded in reality.
I really have a hard time believing that the Bahamian people actually woke up from their beds, took a bath, brushed their teeth, put on arm deodorant, dressed themselves, ate breakfast, washed out their mouths, went to their polling divisions, and actually voted for the PLP.
I find that astonishingly mind boggling! Did Bahamians really not see that this would be the sum of things if they voted PLP??? Seriously Bahamians???
And this is the same man who promised the Bahamian people jobs. I can't help but wonder how many of these 2,000 people who were laid off actually were gullible enough to believe Perry's lies.
Yeah.... my wife and I were just discussing the same thing today. We're no fans of the FNM and neither of us voted in 2012. But it's obvious now that that was a gross mistake on our part.
At this point, our entire family has agreed that we must vote for Hubert Minnis and the FNM. Enough is enough. This government has to go. And the DNA is not a viable option at this time nor are the realistic or practical. I hope that I don't live to regret this, but the FNM is our only solution at this point in our history. We're going to give Dr. Minnis a chance. It's time for the people of the Bahamas to establish a leader who has never been influenced by the PLP.
So far..... all three of our historical Prime Ministers have served as PLP's. It's time we break that trend.

I wonder how Perry Christie, Bernard Nottage and the rest of the PLP would feel if the FNM erected crime billboards around the island.
Thank goodness the FNM has more class and decency than that.
