Ok. I can accept that. Thanks for the insight.

Spoken like a true FNM! A mindless drone, with a horses bridle in its mouth, unable to summon unconventional methods to improve his current situation.

First of all.... the only voice that existed under the FNM was HAI. The rest of its members were just sycophants. McCartney made the mistake of assuming that he had a voice too..... and that's when HAI abruptly and embarrassingly dispelled him of that notion.

Second of all, your suggestion is actually the main cause of much of the political fiasco going on in government today! The entire reason that neither the FNM or PLP have worked is because they've realized that they don't have to! They relish in the fact that no matter how disappointed Bahamians become with their lackluster, bungling, trifling, incompetent, practices of governing, we actually still have to surrender our votes to one of them! To this I say "no more!"

How would you feel if you were forced to choose between an abusive spouse or an unfaithful spouse..... and that's all you had to choose from??? None of them would feel compelled to change knowing that once you tire of the other, you'll be back. And while you're bouncing back and forth between the two, they're busy laughing at you and exploiting you!! This illustration draws an exact parallel of what's going on in the Bahamas!! It's time to put an end to it!!

Voting for the DNA has more to do with ousting the lunacy of both the FNM and PLP, than it has to do with the DNA itself. This would send a transperant message to both parties to shape up or ship out!! History books are filled with men and women who's initial reaction and rebellion to a failed political system seemed reckless and unbecoming at the time!! How many civic and political movements and causes were propelled into existence by just one man or one woman who at the time seemed rouge and irresponsible??? The answer is, MANY!!

If history maintained your ideals and your one tracked mode of thinking, none of the great things that great men have accomplished throughout history would have ever come to existence!! You and many other Bahamians are victims of mental slavery!! Free your mind and think unconventionally at times!! Think outside the box!! Nothing is impossible! And if ever the Bahamas needed to send a clear message to both the FNM and PLP that we are not drones.... it's now!

You attempt to portray Branville as being toothless, but yet you admit that he caused your FNM the last general election. If you were in the habit of reading history books the way that I am, you would not be so quick to dismiss Bran. Nelson Mandela started out as a poor, lone voice, with only two or three supporters as well. But look at what happened! He ended up liberating an entire race of people!! For Gods sake..... take the shackles off your ankles!!

Oh geez.

I can truly see why the national GPA is an F. People like you have a mental block when it comes to comprehension. My above mentioned post simply suggests that the DNA does not have ENOUGH competent people at this time to contend for the government. But that can all change if Branville solicited the assistance of the right people. I wasn't saying that their current members are not competent. I was saying that their issues are more quantitative than qualitative. My comments weren't meant as an indictment against the DNA nor am I pushing their agenda.
My focus is more concentrated on sending a direct message to the FNM and PLP.

Some of y'all Bahamians so dumb man. Pick up a few history books and read sometimes. Maybe that'll improve your intellect and understanding.

Cobalt says...

Why is everybody so quick to discredit Bran and his party??? Given the current status of our country and the fact that the Bahamas continues to regress, it's obvious that the Bahamas needs a new government. Don't forget that Branville McCartney and the DNA had a great influence on the last general elections! The DNA has and continues to reinforce the consensus that many Bahamians are completely fed up with the PLP and the FNM!

The current state of the Bahamas and the manner in which our country continues to spiral out of control is proof that both governments have failed. In my opinion, the only component that the DNA seems to be missing is more influential Bahamians, competent and knowledgable enough, with the guts and honesty to govern. If Branville had forty more men or women like him, I would definitely vote DNA. Think about it....... can Bran really be any worse that Perry or Hubert??? It bothers me that the Bahamas has yet to see a leader who's not a PLP! Pindling, Perry Christie, and Hubert Ingraham ALL served as PLPs!! After falling out with Pindling, both of them left the PLP. But Perry returned some years later, while Hubert ran to the FNM! In doing so, Ingraham brought the same bull-headed, dogmatic tactics he learned under the Pindling regime, to the FNM!

Bahamians need to get serious and send a clear message to both the FNM and PLP that we are unsatisfied and DONT have to put up with either of them any longer! We should at least consider giving the DNA at least five years to govern and implement their ideas. In the meantime this will send a clear and blatant message to the PLP and the FNM while simultaneously allowing the old guards of both parties to fade into obscurity. And hopefully by the end of the DNA's time in office both PLP and FNM would have initiated new blood into each their parties. Bahamians need to smarten up and use the democratic process to take our country back from these clowns.

Cobalt says...

We can't blame Perry Christie for the increased number of murders. This is a social crisis that we're dealing with. Poor parenting and the absence there of is the main problem! The homes are the root cause. The homes are in disarray.

Cobalt says...

No no no people. Alyson Maynard and the PLP think they're slick!

What they're attempting to do is drag this out as long as they can so that they can use this scandal as political leverage during the next general elections! They want it fresh in the minds of the electorate in 2017 hoping that it will give them a political advantage.

Cobalt says...

This murder was caught on video surveillance. One of the assailants wasnt even wearing a mask. Police should have no problems solving this case.
