we need to pray , arrogance , aggressiveness , suppremecy , and disrespect is risking this whole process .Zille should retire , to insult Zuma culture , to insult Gayon right to represent his constituency , is bad foundation to build a Gnu , all logic goes out of the window , when there no respect .Imagine the human difficult for the NEC of the ANC , have empathy , its was nearly human impossible decesion to make to work with DA , but in pricinple they overcame that , change of attitude and change of how we go into dialogue is the key . I pity South Africa , if DA fight arrogance is already threatening it .

The problem is that white South Africans I being pulled into it and the perception is created that all white South African endorses that behaviour ,and polarization continues .As coloured person myself I don't believe whites speak out loud enough against this ,secondly spare a thought for ANC NEC ,how traumatic it was for each person in that NEC to invite the DA into that GNU , forget the politics and that trauma is perpetuated by the. behaviour of some DA leaders ,I have greatest respect for FF leaders I just which there politics was different ,but the respect they show and have is evident whenever they interact with advisoris That is what we all must lean ,understand each one context them we will move forward

Why don't you pray that White Supremacy must end, and all people of God, get equal opportunities, economically, we share Land equally as well, and in that sense, government of national unity will happen automatically, not this one that favors markets, and against voters!

One person one vote in an educated society is fine,otherwise it becomes very skewed,unfair,and makes the numbers,mainly the poor masses abused pawns,very sad.

As an American I’m actually impressed. I don’t see it lasting though the more I learn about SA politics. Eventually the DA will gain the presidency because the ANC will continue to decline along ethnic lines.

Zuma is an old man and his health condition is suspect. He could not even read his public speech, at the previous Mk press conference, was done by someone else. His party is in disarray due to in fighting with Khumalo.

Jacob Zuma's days of life is known by God. He is the only one who knows when we leave this world. It's not you who determines WHEN ZUMA WILL DIE. The fact that he didn't read his speech, has got nothing to do with his AGE. HE HAD HIS OWN PERSONAL REASONS OR EVEN POLITICAL REASONS. Wena you are just a PROPHET OF DOOM. YOU might even leave this world before Zuma , because death, has no age. LEAVE ZUMA TO LIVE HIS LIFE AS GOD DETERMINED AND NOT YOU.

Your confidence in GNU is based on nothing. ANC has stopped to exisists. DA HAS all the authority over them. They can't make decision outside of the DA, they have to consult with them in every little thing. THAT IS POWERLESSNESS. What about EXPROPRIATION OF LAND WITHOUT COMPENSATION? What about Nationalisation of Banks and Mines? DA and ANC will not implement them. And that, is going to cause TENTION amongst the parties and the citizens.
