It is too late in the game to be choosing a new leader. Unite behind Dr. Minnis and stop the bickering. Loretta Butler Turner had her opportunity and lost.Get over it. I am part of the electorate with no loyalty to any party and I could see the stupidity of the "sour loser child like behavior that says, lets ran again".

Everything Mr. Oswald writes is calculated. He always writes with a political angle. He wrote this about his present boss Mr. Mitchell in 2009,"I have no idea what that is supposed to mean, but it is still my opinion that Mitchell is a shameless self-promoter who has allowed his monumental ego to obfuscate the fact that not everything he says is news worthy".

I don't know what the big deal is. Primary care already exists. Children up to the age of eighteen and the elderly already have primary care. Those two grouping are our biggest health care expense. All those in between pay a small amount for service render by the public health care system with the Government subsidizing the bulk of the cost. The government is selling something that already exist. What we need is catastrophic care.

I have always been of the opinion that there are far more mentally ill people than we care to imagine. Just like the body gets sick the mental part of us also experience illnesses. No one wants to be identified as crazy so we self medicate by drinking, smoking or some other way to relieve the illness that exist in our mind. Some mental problems are chronic and others are as simple as the common cold. If you never had the common cold then you can rule yourself from the number of those who never experience some form of mental illness.

I don't know how the PM could expect the commissioner to solve the problem of God-less, unemployable, fatherless youths with no-social skills roaming the inner city looking to earn their so call strips.

Get over it disgruntle FNM's. The average Bahamian have not brought into the media trying to hijack Dr. Minnis leadership. I personally don't know whether he is a good leader or not but I am convince that no one can be worst than Christie. One more thing, I had my fill of slick talking lawyers.

Capital punishment is carried out on a regular basis. Because the government is not doing it the citizenry have carried it out as written.

During the Bahama fiasco the government insisted that the bankruptcy court hearing take place in the Bahamas, do you think they will ever insist that drug dealers be tried here. It will be nice to see the extradition laws carried out in a reciprocal manner. You send one American, we send one Bahamian.

The businesses are the one that should be awarded. The government has been trying to collect taxes for years with minimal success. The first year you pass it over to the private sector they surpass your best estimate.

Gainfully employed will need to be proved. Do immigration have a salary stub, cheque or any evidence that he was receiving a salary or any form of compensation for services rendered. All the courts are asking is in light of the fact you kick him out, why, and if its because he was gainfully employed then show us the evidence he was. Checks and balances are a beautiful thing when it works correctly.
