What makes me angry is those stupid rebels up in africa shooting tour buses when they could just come down here and deal with Zuma for us.

A recent study/survey has shown that Zuma's approval rating has doubled amongst minorities Whites, Indians and Coloureds.... But obviously you want him dead...

in any case, zuma is kinda more aware of white poverty then his Mbeki counterpart, 2-3 more ANC elections and this entire black liberation k@k will be out of the country, hopefully.

Zuma gains popularity: Poll
Monday, 11 January 2010
President Jacob Zuma's popularity has increased over the last six months, according to the results of a poll conducted by research company Ipsos Markinor.


Increasingly popular: South African President Jacob ZumaMost South Africans rated Zuma highly when asked in the survey to assess him on a scale of zero to ten - where zero meant "totally against" and 10 "totally in favour of".

"Zuma's rating increased over the last six months from 6.1 out of 10 --measured in April 2009 -- to 7.6 out of 10."

The socio political trends survey interviewed 3500 South Africans, aged 18 and older in October and November of last year.

"Although his rating among black people also increased, the increase among minority groups is the most notable.

On average, black people rated him at 8.2 in the latest statistics, compared to 7.3 in April.

His approval rating more than doubled amongst white people from 2.3 in April to 5.4 in the November ratings.

Indian people ranked him as a 6.7 in the most recent survey compared to April's 3.5 score and coloured people rated him a 5.9 compared to April's 2.6.

Given an election-style ballot paper to vote for their favourite party, seventy one percent of the respondents put their cross next to the ANC.

The African National Congress is celebrating it's 98th birthday on Friday.

:P

Obviously my comment was tongue-in-cheek but the reason Malema and Zuma keep making the news is because they keep doing stupid things which are newsworthy. Latest thing: Zuma having more than one wife? If one is going to buy into the Westernised ideals of Democracy it is only fair that you embrace all of its values. By being the president of a democratic country you represent the epitome of this ideal. I know in reality there is no 'perfect' president but atleast theres an effort to conform. Zuma just does his own thing. You can argue its his culture, it that case he can go be a leader in his own culture, but in a country that wants democracy I want someone who is willing to uphold it. I don't want people perpetuating sexist practises. Can these women have more than one husband? So much for equality...

That's the way! :p

But to be fair the media villifies these people meaning the western world doesn't tolerate it. Zuma however, seems to be resistant the media and just does his own thing :D.
