So far am pretty disappointed by the likes of PK,Madam Martha,Tuju and Prof.Kiyapi,they are engaging in the same old brand of politics criss crossing the country to no ones benefit,am certain they are not getting any political mileage doing so,why dont they engage the youth one on one,visit campuses and hold talks that are aimed to convince the youth why the country needs a change of leadership,hold concerts ...on concerts Obama will hold a fund raiser next month where Stevie wonder,Kate Perry,Earth wind and fire,Bon jovi,jennifer hudson etc will perform,make us believe you,l bring change,and your hip while at the same time focussed on where you,l lead the country,havent yet seen any interesting ad like the ones in the states,be a little bit creative...

...trust me we do just need to bring them to the fore and make them realise that their future is in their hands,most of them are like me with no id,s or voter cards thus they dont feel the need to vote even though they know the country is run badly and they can make the much needed change.

Maka,you should know that in Kenya we vote along ethnic lines not the kind of trend you are imagining.The candidates you have mentioned are fringe due to lack of support from their ethnic groups.

My goodness! Don't you think that is too high a call? It's expecting much from a country challenged by many irrelevant but dominating issues.
Issues we can't even ignore because their genes form part and parcel of a 'normal' mwananichi.

How about comparing our style with a country like Botswana? come down kidogo.

Again, wazuans will be here complaining about these leaders come 2017.
So why not field one from among your own to bring sanity to our politics? The obamas of wazua.
It's the only way forward or else we talk and talk and talk.

@mawinder and essyk something we need to change,from this (www.ke.undp.org/index.php/news/2012/03/global-youth-leadership-forum-on-inclusive-governance)...out of a population of 38 m youth aged between 15-34 years and children between 0-14 years rep 78% those eligible to vote are more than 40% can make good votes for 1 candidate...we should comparing ourselves like Botswana they arent in our league..."rem the quote by Marianne Williamson...Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,Our greatest fear is we are powerful beyond measure"...who in the 90s would have prophesied that the all powerful M.O.1 would relinquish power to a man on a wheelchair...that he,d be booed during that ceremony?In this world with a little will power anything is possible...

And the same brand of recycled and tired politics will continue come 2017.
Popularity alone is enough to give one an upper hand here.Intelligence and issue based politics don't matter.
What matters is who can throw the farthest stone or shout the loudest.
And voila! leader.smile

But think about Obamas budget for those tours.Hatuwesmake.
What about the minds of the electorate?Education does wonders for a nation.
Tribal politics,Greed,Lack of Accountability,Selfishness,Harboring a community's not Nation's vision at large,are cancers eating up minds of aspiring leaders.
