I heard a little tit bit a couple of days ago on 702 saying that Kgalema might actually get to lead the country until 2013. Dunno how true that is but I'd back this guy more than Zuma as a president.

I highly doubt that, but I wouldnt mind it, as he does seem capable in comparison to beloved JZ

I know Kgalema will only be the interim pres. until the next elections in 2009.Zuma will obviously be in the hot set for the next 5 years.Let's see what he can produce.
