    Do you mean Rawlings is so dumb that even if he sees a good thing he can't make an objective assessment?This is something that political scientists have said,which they think NDC shd copy.

  • Concerned 9 years ago

    It's true rawlings has no brains but giving more people a say can't be described as brainless. I suppose your problem is him praising the opposition for improving democracy. Even dogs know that's a good thing

    Maturity? I beg to differ. The trickster is at work again, trying to prepare the grounds in case NDC should lose the 2016 elections.

  • @Nii Shame 9 years ago

    You think JJ fears something, don't you? Keep up staying in your dreamland. No one, repeat, no one can do him anything. The past is past and gone.

  • Nana Yaw 9 years ago

    The hypocrite is bitter because his attempted ploy to impose his corrupt wife on the NDC via a palace coup, failed miserably!!!!!

  • Maabena aka Mercy 9 years ago

    Yes, it is understandable, for Rawlings to have a grip on NDC while his wife joins Akufo Addo so that they are secure either way. Isn't that clever? Yes Rawlings is not a fool. Yes, he used to bribe delegates to remain in pow ...

    J.J. Rawlings need to stick to military coups and army issued riffles, his murderous activities and all the juju practices that protect him and leave logical reasoning to others. Since when did population size affect bribery ...

    ..the only problem is that the one bribing has not enough money to go round. That is to say all the delegates would stretch out their hands for the "money" on election day. Unfortunately it would not reach them. This does no ...
