President or Prisoner?

Elections in the USA is not the only political conflict going on now, back in South Africa we have this wonderfully crazy man (if you can call him that). Jacob Zuma. This man was the deputy president of South Africa not to long ago before being fired. This was do to not so false allegations of corruption and rape. He was found not guilty on the charges of rape alone, I'm still not so convinced though.

He is now currently president of the ANC, South Africa's leading party. Zuma has more influence at this point in the party than the actual South African President, who is ANC. Zuma at one pointed said that the current president should no longer be in that position, as he was no longer the president of the ANC party.

Trials are coming up in a few months on Zuma's corruption allegations. So to keep it simple, if he loses and proved guilty of corruption he ends up in jail. However, if he wins, he becomes South Africa's next president.

Just the fact that this is going on should be enough for him to get fired or resign.

Dreaming

If we don't keep considering our dream it will stay a dream or worse, it will become a nightmare.
