Anxieties are good for better decision making, but I wonder how you expect
other political leaders to fold their hands together and accept the "God
given/common sense leadership" of Ousainou and UDP/NRP as the doctor's magic

Is Ousainou up for the game? That is the 2011 question.
Bailo, I think you've got something up your sleeve for starting this one,
but I will fall in your bait knee deep before they start calling me a
ditractor.
