The sms-voting idea is fine but not very practical for issues that are this important. Sms-voting technology sucks, just ask Barbz. hehehe

At least you came up with a solution this time unlike your usual 'just-complaining'.

Leading up to the Policy Conference we advised Comrade Jeff and Gwede to adopt a Policy that will pave adoption of a Legislation, through Constitutional amendment to enable the Majority of South Africans to elect leaders like the way they elect the Political Parties to vest all their given powers by the electorate on useless Cadres like Cele, Nyanda, Mahlangu Nkabinde, the late Siceka, Mathale, Mabuza, Block, Molewa and all other non performing Ministers like Pieterson and Xhingwana. Instead Gwede told us that we cannot do that as ANC is not a Public Enterprise but a Political Enterprise belonging to its Branches which will decide its future. But he did not answer my following two questions, Who is literally having mandate to put ANC in Power and Who does the ANC serve after attaining the given mandate by the General Electorate? We told him why as a majority party ANC cannot open its gate to the General Public? They keep on shutting the majority of voters out at the expense of useless Cadres like Julius Malema type of leaders who are arrogant and only hungry for money and deceit, do not get me wrong I am not saying Julius was not speaking sense sometimes I only give examples!! Zuma understood our stance for a moment before Gwede pass to another motion before we can finish.As academics in the ANC we do not have power to push our own agendas as we advise the Politicians accordingly and than they always take decisions which favors corruption and leadership assurance to themselves. If Political Contention can be opened to everybody in the ANC many Ministers will be outshines by Civil leaders and Academic heavyweights like Dr Mamphela Ramphela and Sir Richard Bryston and the likes of Sello Maake Ka Ncube, Mark Shuttleworth and Njabulo Ndevele and Raul Khoza to mention but a few and South Africa will be a very beautiful country if led by intellectually proven academically deserving citizens like this unlike useless ANC Cadres who are deployed specifically to loot and control tenders. I am saying this because I truly love this Organisation. We told Gwede and Zuma that: Will they be able to rig and rob the election if these 59 Million people who are voting for ANC can vote against them for another alternative Party they did not answer us!! I still say that vest the General Public with powers through Constitutional means to elect the following in a secrete ballot like the way we elect a Party, the list include:+ The President, Deputy President, Ministers, Deputy Ministers, Premiers, MEC's, Heads of Portfolio Committees in Parliament and Provincial Legislature, Mayors, Speaker of Parliament and Chief whip as well as Chairperson of the National Council of Provinces. That is the day we will see if leaders like Cele, Nyanda, Mahlangu Nkabinde, the late Siceka, Mathale, Mabuza, Block, Molewa and all other non performing Ministers like Pieterson and Xhingwana will pass that reasonability test to lead our People, we are not fools Gwede and let me assure you 59 Million Professors, Doctors, Degree Holders, Diplomas and Certificate Candidates will never ever be wrong for the sake of our beloved Democracy and Country. What you are doing will lead you to what happened to Renamo, National Party, The Bolsheviks, The Nazis and will probably end up like the American War of Independence, The French Revolution and ultimately the fall of Roman Empire. Why cannot you listen to the hand that feed you, It will be a disaster for the ANC if the General Public can turn its back on you, try to win the Public favor as soon as possible Comrades before the bomb explode on you one day during a certain General Elections!! Please Zuma respect the public they are the most distracting Pacific Ocean Waters that you cannot prevent should they submerge an attack on the ANC! You can talk about your Policies but what will happen to you if People did not vote for you? That will be futile and a useless foolish exercise!! A win for ANC might not be obvious in the coming ten years because of the evolution of the electorate in ten years time. Children who are born in 1990 does not know nothing about Vervoord and Pik Botha , the old crocodile!! so they can vote for Godzille or Mazibuko because baya hlesa and are Civilized, me and you are not sure Mr President and SG, PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THAT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!! IF YOU THINK YOU WILL RIG THE ELECTIONS, RIGGING 59 MILLION VOTES WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT AND ULTIMATELY IMPOSSIBLE, OTHERWISE JUST LIKE MUBARAK AND GADAFFI THE PEOPLE WILL JUST COME IN VERY REMARKABLE HUGE NUMBERS TO UNION BUILDING AND REMOVE YOU SINGLE HANDED OUT OF THOSE PUBLIC OFFICES REMEMBER ANC ONLY SERVE THE GOVERNMENT IT DOES NOT OWN IT BUT IS OWNED BY THE PEOPLE WHO CAN REMOVE AND RETAIN SO THOSE BEAUTIFUL LUXURIOUS OFFICES IN UNION BUILDING DOES NOT BELONG TO ANC BUT THE PEOPLE PLEASE COMRADES THIS IS TRUE BE CAREFUL!!

They have it in their heads that the ANC will rule forever - therefore no urgency to perform on behalf of the people. The financial resources are available but the management capability is certainly not there. When tenders are awarded, they go to the politically connected and not the most capable.
