Datt "Hindu" philosophy got PPP down the shaft.  If they paid attention to the needs of the people and not left them up to "karma", they would not have such a mess.

PNC giving alyuh nuff nuff honey this time around.  Let's see 2020, maybe even before.  Read the "hints" coming for Caribj!

Not if the constitution change to allow collation after elections. AfC would be in a better position to negotiate the better deal offer by APNU verses the PPP.

That is PNC being typical PNC. They always wanted all of it even though they did not work for or deserve all of it. Without the AFC, the PNC wouldn't have the 60% of the Cabinet they have now. They would have zero %.

This sounds like crab daag attitude bai. How are coolies a stupid bunch?

However, pre-1992, votes weren't counted. The result was decided way prior to the election. Did someone say the PPP weren't democratic?

This seems more plausible given the PNC historical election MO record.

I have a feeling that APNU isn't going to wait till 2020 to do this.

The coolies spent 23 years tiefin while running the country's major industries like sugar and rice into the ground.

Then they undermined the rule of law. Then they left Indians to face a 90% PNC ethnically loyal GDF and Police Force.

All them big mansions them coolies got can't protect them from a bullet to the head at 2am.

You yourself never criticized the Coolie Captains of the Titanic for bringing us to this iceberg we knew was coming since 2000.

P.S....dem coolie idiots was tiefin millions and neglected a State that is about to produce billions.

I am not defending the leaders of the party bai. I am addressing the notion that the masses are stupid for voting PPP. No matter how much the leaders may have deviated from ideal governance, the masses are still better served by the PPP than by the PNC. Nothing in history can contest that argument.

Timing is of the essence.

Nah, they were outwitted by the USA.  You see, the announcement (Exxon) was made within days of the PNC victory.  How coincidental.

The masses of Indians are trapped by ethnic security fears and vote "safety in numbers".  The real culprits of the demise of Indians are their leaders.

Dem idiots still too schupid to realize how many varied elements came together to kick them from power. I'm only surprised it took this long for the old stars to align against them. These people doan learn.

This was not the decision of a clerk of the State Department. This was a major policy shift on how to handle Venezuela. Venezuela now has a limitless American presence on its borders and if Exxon is really wicked (which I have no doubt of) they can use gravity to drain some Venezuelan oil fields

And the US will not allow another anti-US regime access to oil wealth to strengthen the Maduro/Morales/Castro axis.

* Well said Carib.

* The AFC will never become a mass based party like the PPP and PNC, but they can remain "kingmakers" for years to come.

* What the AFC needs to ensure is the CONSTITUTION is reformed to diminish the power of the President.

* Unless the President is stripped of the power of recall for example----the AFC is powerless in the current coalition.

I already did.  And the facts and figures are already in the public domain.  Now if you don't wish to do the analysis feel free.  But the PPP INCREASED its margins in its strongholds, so Moses didn't deliver. Ramotar did when she engaged in the Linden Masssacre.

Now you can engage in a hysterical meltdown, or you can deconstruct those numbers and developed a counter point.  You aren't Nehru, but this hysterical reaction is helping your argument.

Well the MASSES voted against the PPP TWICE.

Maybe  you lot will one day understand that Indians are a MINORITY in Guyana, and no longer the majority.

Yes they are really trapped.  Stormborn has long warned about the shoe being on the other foot as the Indian population declines.  Well a massive turnout of African and mixed voters, combined with a small swing Indo vote (mainly in Gtown I suspect) was enough to slay the PPP beast.

Indians will remain trapped unless they figure out how to develop cross ethnic alliances.
