Hope you didn’t spend too much of your time thinking up that nonsense. Judging from the venom spewing from your thoughts about the OBA, can I assume that you’re a dye in the wool PLP supporter? If so, why would you say “the future is bleak...”? The PLP have at least 4 more years in office and the OBA is house divided.

The majority of us agree that Slavery was and is immoral.

		<description><![CDATA[In my opinion, Cannonier is going to cause a lot of supporters to give up on the OBA. This is not a good move.  

We do not still have all the answers to JETGATE! 
Who advised him and why was his private business manager in GOVERNMENT MEETINGS? Was he given bad advice on that?
When will we know why Thad Hollis resigned?  
The OBA ran on a campaign of Honesty, Trust and Integrity. Does Craig Cannonier extol these qualities? He admitted himself that he had been &quot;less than transparent&quot;.  
If the answer to the above is no, then SHAME on those 8 MP&#039;s who anointed their leader.
You may have done us all a great disservice.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The funny thing about it is, is that the voting dynamics in Bermuda mirror that largely of the US.  That being the majority demographic has the ability to vote for both Parties as they both have to pander to them given their overall numbers.  

The minority populations in the US vote overwhelmingly for one Party as the other option isn&#039;t really a viable option given the disdain that the former tends to have towards the latter.  

Hence, one segment of the population tends to be able to be so called &#039;swing vote.&#039;  Bermuda is really no different when it comes to this issue, although some will outright deny the hostility shown towards one segment by one political Party and its supporters towards the minority.  

Just look at several of the comments in this thread alone where the posters use the dog whistle term &#039;Born Bermudians.&#039;  This term is being used to insinuate only black people can be &#039;real Bermudians.&#039;  

As I said the voting patterns locally are due by and large to the same issues with the local political organisations as is the case in the US.  And why would the current ruling Party change the tactics when it serves them so well in terms of achieving power. It is what it is and it won&#039;t change anytime soon unfortunately.  Power means everything to some.]]></description>

September 24, 2018
Doesn’t matter what the UBP/OBA won!!!

They will never win again in your life time and that coming from someone that voted for UBP and later OBA. You will never convince a certain segment of Bermuda to swing votes. Point taken from last election.

People in the UBP called the PLP racist, but it’s the majority of black Bermudians that swing votes from UBP/OBA to PLP. The only reason why the UBP and OBA won over the years!!

The only a small group of white Bermudians swing to PLP and the truth be heard… when we do our own race stops speaking to us….and we than call the PLP racist because we lost which is wrong!!!!!!]]></description>
