No. He is foolishly hiding under Patterson's coattail to name a date after March 21.
Just as you foolishly hide under Jagdeo every time he pretends that he wants black support.
Here is why he wants black support. Because he is afraid that unless he gets at least 35 seats he might suffer the same fate if someone pulls an NCV on him. And he can only get this if he gets more of the black/mixed vote.
But until he and you tell black people why their opinion of the PPP should change that isnt likely to happen. And this will only change when the PPP confronts the reason why they are despised by the vast majority of the black/mixed vote.
His NCV stunt in fact has consolidated this bloc behind the coalition even when a few weeks before they expressed their frustration with that group. Even Jagdeo had to admit this when he said that he was told that even as many blacks didn't plan to vote Coalition they couldn't bring themselves to vote PPP.
The PPP needs to understand that winning an election without resolving the ethnic distrust means that they aren't going to govern effectively. One cannot do so when almost 50% of the population see every act of theirs with distrust and disgust.
Their focus needs to shift from winning elections to figuring out how to govern Guyana and it can only do so if our politics stops being a low keyed tribal war.
