POLITICAL LIGHTWEIGHTS, MAKE WEIGHTS AND BIG WIGHTS IN kenya's politics

I have to find myself a black shoe, now that is a timeless message i received from an impartial fashion judge, i can also pass for a kalenjin, my lecturer looks at the class attendance sheet and rounds of my looks to the name Kibet, i don't blame her it has happened before, am not even offended, after all i have this oblong thin face that does not tie me to Bantuic tribes, then there was social layman at an eatery i used to frequent that told me i looked somali, now that took me aback.
  I have woken up with a political foot, may be its because the shower was broken, but i can't help but think about the political future of the this country, the no so distant future, the 2012 future i mean. the stage is set, the circus clowns have paint on them, it mirrors the political comedy cum satire that airs on KISS TV XYZ, I hate it.
  Anway there will be a Raila on stage, an Uhuru to, and a Ruto if circumstances permit, there will also be a cast of fringe  actors that we don't want to name because their role ain't even that of supporting cast, they could be ignore altogether, a certainty in Kenya future political land scape will have one of the aforementioned men as the baba of the Taifa or kijana mkuu for Uhuru and Ruto for they have refused to grow up and still prefer The kijana tag following them. another truth is that all the aforementioned have royal blood in their veins two by birth and one by adoption into a huge political dynasty into Kenyan politics.
   the question that begs is should we entrust all our hopes, our aspirations our, our desires with any of this men? My problem with ourselves is that we are very poor judges of character and ability, at times we believe in the abilities of people because they have assured as that they can do certain things, can we continue doing so?
   No we can't afford to do so. lets start with Uhuru for example, he has been on my crucible for a while now, inference he does not merit to become our next leader. apart from using his fathers' names for obvious political capital (* fathers if you put Moi in there), he has done nothing to prove that he can lead this nation. given that he has had a few years now in the national political arena he has done nothing extraordinary to merit the ordinary seat of the Kenyan presidency, i mean he is just like an ancient Arab dhow that flows wherever the winds push it. no a man of his own. case closed you make the judgment about him.
    Raila, the most suave and charismatic among them, a hero of the second liberation, for which we shall remain eternally thank full. His ideology and philosophy that runs in his family and among his inner circles of social democracy i do not follow. His populist policies of mass appeasement mirror the appeasement policies adopted by the west on Adolf Hitler and Germany before the second world war, catapulted against them, he needs to be pragmatic to, how about a cause for business from, him how about going full throttle for wealth creation now that would positive energy in the right direction, i don't also want an entertainer for my president , the Nonini's do a bad job and i don't expect him to fare any better. As for Ruto lets wait for the minor matter fo the Hague is decided before we make our judgment, after all we don't want a president ruling as from a Jail cell in the scandivia before we ,make our judgement.
   bottom line is we need to refocus our attention on the real quality leaders we have around us that we have never appreciated, the likes of Mukhisa Kituyi, you can build on this list may be then we might be able to have our very own Ian Khama among us or a Bingu Wa Muthairika for president.
