I am not going to argue with the hypothetical that Granger wants to commit political suicide. The AFC will henceforth stymie him in office and to say off hand that the AFC is spent is useless pontificating.
I also do not know that they have lied to any supporter. They entered the coalition as a unit and that is what they must abide by. To this date I see very few issues of dysfunction that predicates the APNU cannot move the economy in time. There are no special grease that the PPP cooks with that provides them subtle benefits to govern not accessible to others. The gripe I here on this board against the administration is mostly racist bile and sour grapes at having lost the election.
When I spoke of people having struggled and died for benefits we accrue I am speaking specifically of the people on this board, Cobra, Nehru, Basedrum Skeldonape who contemptuously discounts black life as less than. They are an example of entrenched attitudes to race.
I am happy the AFC did not contest independently at the local level. I wished the people had the good sense to seek office independent of party but that is another story.
I am also not making a random generalization of Guyanese. It is an empirical fact that we sue for power on ethnic identified parties. It is the seat of all the arguments as to the persistence of nepotism over merit.
