Eric, i must tell you that Molau is still suffering because of apartheit,which is why He wouldn’t vote for anybody who seem to have benefitted from apartheit.

Molau, your comments belong in a Madam & Eve cartoon! Unfortunately you represent the majority of South African voters, a majority that simply does not know better, that hasn’t been exposed to history and to endless research that shows that the ANC’s economic policies kill countries, not heal them.

The frustration for all of us here on the Internet is that we can see the problems, but the real voting power is in the hands of the uneducated masses who vote without understanding or with intimidation. Your ra-ra-ra approach unfortunately works, which is a shame.

to battle south africans to battle 4 a truly democratic south africa! all democratically minded and patriotic south africans across class and racial lines are called upon to join hands in defending the democratic project that many of our country men and women have have paid the ultimate price so that we can be truly free from the evils of apartheid capitalism. the revoltuionary tasks demands that we rise above our petty political ambitions and defend the leader and vanguard of the ndr. The motive forces which constitute the political army is called upon to occupy the battle trenches in defence of our country our people and our revolution. Freedom or death victory is certain. Viva ndr viva, down with hypocrites down with sellouts. Amandla

Ek dink dat Helen Zille die geskikste kandidaat is om hierdie land te lei. Sy doen n uitstekende werk in Kaapstad en is ‘n beginsel vaste persoon. Sy glo in die land en sy glo ook in elke Suid Afrikaner se potensiaal ongeag wat jou velkleur is. As ek dit mag noem wil ek graag net se dat hierdie land nooit weer apartheid sal sien nie.

Helen het my stem en ek weet sy sal die land kan lei deur elke krisus en probleem.

Viva Zille Viva

Ek het Rev Kenneth Meshoe al hoor preek en sing, en ek dink hy is ‘n goeie leier, maar ek dink in ‘n land so uiteenlopend soos ons s’n kan jy nie net politiek bedryf op die “christian ticket” nie. As jy iewers wil kom moet jy almal betrek - alle gelowe en oortuigings en dan sal daar sukses wees. Die Christelike waardes is eintlik universele waardes en as hy dit kan regkry.

Ek weet en verstaan dat 98% van Suid-Afrikaners se hulle is christene - maar as jy na die land kyk, besef jy gou dit is net lippetaal, maar jy moet alle mense laat tuis voel in jou party as jy ‘n indruk in die land se politiek wil maak

Rev Kenneth Meshoe of the ACDP is the epitome of a strong leader and deserves more than just my mention on this blog. The principle of strong leadership is not just pandering to the desires of the voters, which exactly what Zuma and Malema are doing, each in their own ways, but directing the country to where it needs to be. Meshoe stands up and lays down the principles from which we have drifted … honesty, work ethic, morality, family values.

While papers like M&G are happy to draw cartoons that ridicule that kind of appeal to morality, perhaps we’re all now at a place where none of us can deny that exactly what our government needs is more morality.

Nou ja; dan wil ek ook dankie sê vir die geleentheid Barend. Ek’t maar gewonder, as ons dan nou praat oor sterk leierskap, of daar ander is wat dink dat Mnr Bantu Holomisa (die Leier van die United Democratic Movement)nie die profiel pas nie: ék dink so en daar is ‘n paar ander ouens wat ook so dink… sien

Vir sogenaamde die ‘jonger generasie’; die man het sy eie FaceBook profiel… dit half ongelooflik; ek dog politici is “technology-challenged’. Ek dog ek sê maar net!

Dagse Barend , wel gedaan . Ek was een van die min wittes wat die konvensie bygewoon het . Wat n belewenis!!. Ek wil jou en alle ander belangstellendes uitnooi na n inligtingsvergadering wat ek gereel het met Mnr Lekota as spreker . Dit vind plaas op 19 November 2008 om 19:00 by Union Caterers, Utopia Onthaalsentrum op die hoek van Curalaan en Lynnwoodweg, Pretoria. Kom luister en vra jou vrae en besluit self of Mnr Lekota en die Congress of the People Party n duik gaan maak in die politiek in SA. Kom ons neem weer n slag deel aan die debat en hou op om net te kla . Ons moet ons eie toekoms bepaal en die 2009 verkiesing is ons kans om n nuwe regering of sterk opposisie te kies . Ek is lief vir hierdie land en wil hier bly en n beter toekoms help skep vir ons nageslag. Sien julle daar en bring jou vriende saam

How can it be that a country with 50mil people don’t have proper leaders? I certainly don’t mind a black, white or brown president. His or her values must be strong. The leaders must teach the people how important love and trust in families are. That’s where it begins I believe. People wants to know that their leaders have strong moral standards. Barack Obama made that very clear and I think that’s a huge factor why he is so popular.
