kindly work this out n tell us what uh get. However I would advise such not to bother trying a 5th time, but if still interested, do a self soul search to find out if main Problem is within rather than without -by listening more to critics rather than sycophants. Otherwise many men will leave a much richer Legacy than presidents, I would easily call bluff and conncentrate on higher ideals


Hebu google Lincoln!!!!

google anasema he died at 56 and by that time he had been re elected as president.


Ask Mr. Google the number of attempts he made!!!

Google's sibling Wikipedia anasema he tried once for the presidency and was successfully elected


Lincoln's road to the White House:
1816: His family was forced out of their home. He had to
work to support them.
1818: His mother died.
1831: Failed in business.
1832: Ran for state legislature - lost.
1832: Also lost his job - wanted to go to law school but
couldn’t get in.
1833: Borrowed some money from a friend to begin a
business and by the end of the year he was bankrupt. He
spent the next 17 years of his life paying off this debt.
1834: Ran for state legislature again - won.
1835: Was engaged to be married, sweetheart died and his
heart was broken.
1836: Had a total nervous breakdown and was in bed for six
months.
1838: Sought to become speaker of the state legislature -
defeated.
1840: Sought to become elector - defeated.
1843: Ran for Congress - lost.
1846: Ran for Congress again - this time he won - went to
Washington and did a good job.
1848: Ran for re-election to Congress - lost.
1849 Sought the job of land officer in his home state -
rejected.
1854: Ran for Senate of the United States - lost.
1856: Sought the Vice-Presidential nomination at his
party’s national convention - got less than 100 votes.
1858: Ran for U.S. Senate again - again he lost.
1860: Elected president of the United States.

at least the most he did the same thing was twice, ukilemewa twice go look for something else - thats the main lesson from Mr. Abraham smile

The probability should be (1- 0.000000175)^n where n is the number of repetitions.

This would mean the Presidency isn't a fair chance. The electoral process will always appear to be skewed against some. Or that the politician is actually not a politician and doesn't regularly build alliances and isn't conscious of what's at stake.

If such a system claims to be a democracy, then it would be an unfair democracy. Needs aren't fairly represented.

Such a system needs to be redesigned so that the odds are even.

The lowest bearable cost of living without transport costs for a single person in Kibera is Kes. 10,000 per month. The minimum wage as per labor law is Kes. 9,780 per month. A monthly deficit of Kes. 220 per month for the formally employed.

The deficit is higher for the Jua Kali sector, and as family size and dependants increase. Saving is impossible, time investment in learning, entrepreneurship are more costly than eking a living.

How can this not be a communal problem?

“The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous.

In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.”

― Adolf Hitler Mein Kampf

RAO can't run in 2017 because according to him, he 'won ' in 2007 and again in 2013.

ION, they are busy collecting signatures to gauge their political might in 2017.

1) No referendum questions yet.

2) Who lied to them if they manage 5M signatures that will translate to votes during elections?
