Taking on the Big Man

Morgan Tsvangirai has been the leader of the opposition party in Zimbabwe for many years. This year it looks to be like he, for the first time, will have his chance in a free and fair election of the people of Zimbabwe. The old leader, Robert Mugabe, who is now 84 years old, has done everything in his power in the past to keep this man from stealing his power. Form arresting him attacking him and threatening him. But Tsvangirai has come back for more every time the nation goes into elections. To me Mugabe trying to keep him from the elections shows me that he was scared that the people would support an honest leader versus and phony one. Thus Mugabe is now calling for recounts on the votes that were taken in last month. This scares the people into thinking that there is some sort of foul play involved yet again. Zimbabwe has inflation rates of 100,000% and is 80% unemployed. This potential new leader vows to solve those problems. Hopefully some good can come out of this. For the good of the nation of Zimbabwe I pray that the leadership would change to someone who will help his people rather than just sit idly by and watch the nation plummet.
