| We voted for a statesman, and we got a manager, and not a bad manager. He has, at the same time, both built and torpedoed democracy. The weakening of the presidency has helped the transition because it made us realize that other (government) institutions didn't work. |
| You have clear alternatives. This is new. The question is how far will the candidates go to win, and will the losers accept the results? |
