Hi Folks, The link to this article was posted the other day but Forum Ireland was offline.sorry..
A Zimbabwe politician was quoted as saying that children should study the US election event closely
To illustrate the point, he made the following comments:
"Imagine that we read of an election occurring anywhere in the third world in which the self-declared winner was the son of the former prime minister and that former prime minister was himself the former head of that nation's secret police/intelligence agency.
Imagine that the self-declared winner lost the popular vote but won based on some old colonial holdover from the nation's pre-democracy past (the electoral college).
