Speaking politics here.

(1) US President Barack Obama who is seeking a second term might have hurt the campaign by standing on the side of gays and lesbians. His Christan supporters have been left in the cold even as the issue is more about equality and financial benefits than marriage itself. These guys need to find other terms, the word marriage has bee brought to disrepute in the process.

(2) Zimbabwe's  Welshmen Ncube an MDC splinter opposition party leader and minister of Industry and Commerce who is the first person to be compared to the late Father Zimbabwe (Joshua Nkomo) will probably never lead Zim as long as the  military is supporting Zanu PF despite his qualifications.

(3) Zimbabwe  Prime minister Morgan Tswangirayi will never rule the country too, but will now survive as a career politician exploiting the benefits of the executive. (the same applies to Makoni  of Mavambo Kusile and Dabengwa of Zapu)

(4) South African ruling party ANC might have severely punished the lousy loud  mouthed, irresponsible and former ANC youth leader Julius Malema by expelling him, but  that will not solve the problems of poverty amongst the  millions black Africans Africans. They only needed a middle ground to bridge the gap of opinions and policies. Former president Thabo Mbeki might find himself having to forge a (Zim style GPA) equivalent power sharing document to that regard in South Africa next year this time around!

Kasuwerere  a young Zanu PF youth empowerment or indigenisation (what ever he is doing )stands a high chance of being Zimbabwe's next 2nd Vice president.
