President John Agyekum Kuffuor and former President Jerry John Rawlings may have another opportunity to serve in a future government of Ghana if the charismatic and former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate --- turned Ghana's Presidential Candidate, "Osagyefo" Kwame Appiah Boateng, popularly known by Ghanaians all over the World as (KWAME MAYOR) wins the 2008 Presidential election, according to an insider of the "Kwame (MAYOR) for President" Campaign.

Appiah, who has sent a Save Our Souls "SOS" appeal to Ghana's News Media, especially Radio Stations inside and outside Ghana to put politics aside and raise money for his Presidential Campaign before the close of CPP Nomination for Flagbearership has publicly hinted on his Campaign Website, www.KwameforPresident.Com that he may consider His Excellency President John Agyekum Kuffuor for a position as a member of Council of State and may also consider naming former Military Junta Leader and former President, Jerry John Rawlings as a Defence Minister, if he is elected President of Ghana in 2008.

Asked why he would offer Kuffuor and Rawlings' positions in government after spending years attacking their personal characters and political shortcomings, the Politician who claims to be the "Greatest Politician of all time just as the legendary Muhammad Ali is undisputably the Greatest Boxer of all time" explained that in Politics, everything is possible.

"I am a fearless and Moralistic Politician who has fought Oppressive Institutions; Dictators and Enemies of Democracy; Enemies of Freedom and Enemies of Liberty all my life".

" I did the right thing by standing up to President Kuffuor who thought that he could abuse his powers with arrogance and impugnity and violate my Human Rights, Natural Rights and Civil Rights - obviously forgetting that part of my life is linked to America's "Land of the Free and Home of the Brave !!!".

"Also, I did the right thing by standing up to a former Military Dictator and former President Rawlings who thought that he could intimidate an entire Nation of Ghana with his Boom-Boom Speeches - obviously forgetting that there is an "American Mandela" who has a tradition of Roaring Back like the Lion King !!!", said the Politician who survived a two year Politically-Motivated and Show Trial in Los Angeles in the infamous, un-American and so-called "Political Trial of the Century" orchestrated by a [few] racist people (regardless of their color of skin) who operated (without) the knowledge of the White House, and were morally and ethically defeated in the end - thanks to the civilized Democratic government of United States of America and Special Thanks to former President, Bill Clinton's White House which ordered the Justice Department to investigate allegations of persecution and torture inflicted upon the former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate who dared to celebrate America's noble ideals and ideas of Democracy, Freedom and Liberty.

The Politician, whose strategic ideas have dictated and shaped significant policies in Ghana ever since President Kuffuor assumed the Presidency, said that it is the Nation --- especially the "Silent Majority" of the Youth and Students; the poor and unemployed; Farmers, the weak and the persecuted; the struggling Middle Class and the rich (who are sometimes victims of un-necessary envy and jealousy) --- which stand to loose if he is not able to run for President in 2008.

He accused "Enemies of Peace" who don't want Ghanaians abroad to exercise their birth right to vote and who don't want Ghanaian "Dual Citizens" to run for President, pleading with the Nation not to make the same mistake that opposed Quatara's Presidency in Ivory Coast which brought a once peaceful Country into turmoil.

"Just as President Kuffuor once lived and worked in Great Britain and his right hand man, Mr.Mpiani fled into exile and worked overseas to make a living and just as former President Rawlings has a legal right and ran for President of Ghana and is qualified to hold Dual Citizenship as Ghanaian -Scottish, he has the same right as a former Ghanaian-American Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate to run for President of Ghana", said the Politician whose biological ancestors from the Adonteng Puduo Royal family of Bamang, near the Kente weaving Town of Bonwire in the Ashanti Region of Ghana, courageously led Asante wars against Colonialism and Imperialism in their capacity as the legitimate occupants of Kumasi Adontenghene Stool or Chieftaincy - from the days of the legendaries Nana Kwarteng Pete, Nana Adonteng Boateng, Nana Kofi Aboasu (alias Nana Kofi Adonteng) to Crown Prince Nana Agyemang Badu.

" Dr. Kofi Abrefa Busia in his days, had the same right as Ghanaian-British Dual Citizen" to run for the position as Prime Minister of Ghana, and if Dr. Busia was indeed a Dual Citizen, then that can be cited by Ghanaians abroad "Dual Citizens" as a precedent, said the "Pocket Lawyer" and Politician who has hinted that he is willing to help Ghanaians abroad to dramatize their case before United Nations.


" If you are a Ghanaian born "Dual Citizen" and you cannot run for President of America because you were not born in America and don't have the Birth Right in America, then of course, you have the Birth Right to run for President in Ghana where you were born and must enjoy your Natural Birth Right !!!", the Political Philosopher and anticipated Ph.D. student in Political Science at the Prestigious Claremont Graduate University (CGU) and alumnus of the prestigious University of Southern California (USC) told Ghanaians abroad.


" Like Nelson Mandela, I will fight for you and break Apartheid Laws", said the "People's Politician" who is bracing for one of the greatest "Political Dramas" in Ghana which could draw International scrutiny, as he plans to utilize the celebrated Peaceful and (Non-Violent) tactics of the legendaries Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr to fight for both Ghanaians Abroad and Ghanaians at Home under One Ghana !!!.

Turning back to his offer to allow both President Kuffuor and former President Rawlings to serve in his government, "Osagyefo" said he has a Natural Spirit of Forgiveness although he hates injustice and oppression which makes him fight back like a Lion, the symbol of his Uhury Party (UP).


" I have considered offering the post of Defence Minister to former President Rawlings because there is an African saying that if you don't want a thief to steal your belongings while you are away, ask the thief to take care of the belongings".


" With Rawlings, who should have a Ph.D. degree in "Coup Mathematics" as my Defence Minister, who can overthrow my government"?, the Politician asked Ghanaians.
