Linden loves Jagdeo. He knows how to prepare and campaign early for an election:

linden-jagdeo

Ever notice that the PPP never has intelligent things to say to blacks. We are only to be wined on kissed, hugged and grabbed.  The racist attitudes that both Ksazma and Druggie have towards us in fact displays exactly what the PPP thinks of blacks. To them we are illiterate losers.

The PPP screamed this in 2007 and again in 2011.  Now if Linden love the PPP when it was in power why will they now?

Jagdeo has his own reasons for visiting Linden and that has NOTHING to do with his concern for that town.

Did Jagdeo outline any ideas to revitalize Linden?  No he went to grab a few black people to get photos opps.

Nothing should prevent his  from visiting but then Lindeners have a right to let Jagdeo know that they will not allow him to use them for a PR stunt.

Jagdeo runs his "coolie people party", screams that his support base are rural Indians, boasts that he didn't have the time to campaign in black majority areas in the LGE.  He wants to fool himself that the PPP has broad based support.

Just by looking at the picture you derived that the PPP has nothing intelligent to say to Blacks?  You are so racist that you just can't help yourself.  Linden has always had a soft spot for Jagdeo, remember these are the same people that proclaimed him the father of the nation. 

I already schooled you on your lies about collie people party. Jagdeo issued a statement denying this in the context that you claim, and indicated that it was the pNC who were going around telling their supporters this.

Jagdeo, Rohee refute “‘coolie people’ party” reports


 

By Abena Rockcliffe
Former President Bharrat Jagdeo yesterday shunned reports that suggested he made racist remarks.

He said that those reports could not have been further away from the truth as he, being a “son of the soil,” is an advocate for a united Guyana.
This newspaper carried a story on Tuesday with the headline “Rohee endorses Jagdeo’s statement that PPP is a ‘coolie people’ party.”  The article quoted PPP General Secretary Clement Rohee as saying that the PPP garners most of its support from Indo Guyanese.
Both Jagdeo and Rohee registered disapproval with the article yesterday. Rohee did so through a press release and Jagdeo, at a press conference he held at Freedom House, Robb Street Georgetown.
At the forum, Jagdeo admitted that he indeed made reference to “coolie people” on Sunday as he spoke at the memorial service his Party hosted at Babu John in honour of its founding member, the late Dr. Cheddi Jagan. Jagdeo said however, that his statements were twisted as well as misinterpreted.
The former President said that he was merely telling the “PPP crowd” that the opposition refers to the PPP as “coolie people they need to get out of office”.
