Qualification Shootout 2016 Elections: ANC vs DA

Ok, so I need to remove some of my qualification from my CV? :)
 
I see a trend, the less qualified you are the more support you get. Does it perhaps have anything to do with the fact that the less educated know how to communicate with the less educated, or are more appealing - education can intimidate some
 
I am not sure what this comparison actually achieves? What matters more in politics is experience, track record (integrity?) and closet-skeletons. Sure, a degree that may contribute for the position/role applied for will be desirable but from my point of view there are both great and despicable politicians holding various NQF levels.
 
OK sorry let me be more specific.

Like qualifications even matter in the politics of this country.

I disagree. A leader leads by example. If w can get our leaders to be well educated even though they have had hardship in there lives, then there example is good. You can even call them an inspiration to others then.

South Africa needs leaders, not just politicians.

I see 4 presidents in the title image, but only 1 comparison in the article I mistakenly clicked on.
 
Honestly I think the DA made a huge mistake with Herman Mashaba. The man doesn't know what he's talking about half the time and is saying a lot without really saying anything the other half.

That is another Ramphele. The party is rather politically naive they excel at appointing people without political savvy.

Do you even know who this guy is.
He has founded a solid business from the ground up with all the determination in the world to succeed.
"Black like Me " is his business.
If anyone should be mayor of Gauteng then it should be him.

Of course I know who he is. On paper he's great but like R13... said, he's too politically raw.

Oh and... Mayor of Gauteng?
