      ..after winning he spends the next 5 years planning for retirement. So no major decisions are made. Mexico has only one 7 year for president

      @coldtusker I am in total agreement. Kenya may eventually come around to this possibility.

      @JimnahMbaru I support the US style election schedule where not all offices are up for election at the same time. Staggered elections

      @coldtusker Kenya spends too much time politicking . Not enough time for production. Elections once every 7 years is ok.

      @coldtusker @jimnahmbaru My favorite "caretaker" Prez was Costa Rica's Don Figueres. Abolished the army and reinvested budget.

          @Calestous @jimnahmbaru IMHO, the best president Kenya never had was Joseph Murumbi. I gave read he was a very decent fella
