Anybody can start a political party...
... but that does not mean that it is a good thing.
Now, in our beautiful country, it seems that as soon as some people learn to write their names on a piece of paper that they qualify to become politicians. And do not give them small government job because then you nah spoil it. When you go look, they will force their crowd of boys to join their new party.
Before you go look, some obscure, never heard of group will step forward and endorse them. That is when the infighting starts for who is who in the party. Egos get stepped on. All this, and no one has yet proclaimed a political doctrine, not to mention registered the party with the National Elections Commission.
The common denominator here is the blown up egos, crowd of boys, no political doctrine other than opposition.
So after a while you have the same amount of political parties as you have egocentric maniacs. The next step is these weird coalitions with just as strange acronyms. When you go look again, the infighting starts again over the different posts in the coalition.
You all see the pattern here right.

Too much talking, no action
For some reason I have recently been getting the feeling that over in Monrovia, everyone is running around attending programs put on display by different players. At these various programs, people gather to listen to keynotes, seminars or whatever. This really appeals to our people because they get to zoot and make merry.
Is anything ever accomplished at these gatherings? Who knows, but I can clearly see that talking is cheap. We do a lot of talking in our country, but when it becomes time to invest your time or money in something concrete, everybody charkla.
Gentlemen, please come help me, lets do this or that. Whoosh! Nobody left. Had it been a question of food, oh, Where is the line?
Yes, Liberia will never go forward. Sound negative to you. Damned right.
