Our present 1973 Constitution places MOST political power in the hands of a prime minister ........... Our PM acts just like most presidents in Third World countries. He can hire and fire the GG, Senators, Cabinet Ministers, COP, Judges, Ambassadors, etc ...... That is a dictator wrapped in a democratic institution.
We dont need to be a Republic ............. We just need to tear up the Pindling Constitution and create a real Westminster system with checks and balances that exist in Britain, Australia, New Zealand and Canada .............. and get rid of the "Banana Republic" version that Pindling created in 1973.

Most Bahamians have little understanding of how the present govt system works.
Imagine if we change to a Republic with another glorified toothless Head of State.
What will we do with Govt House that we have just spent $20 million renovating?
