Who would you chose as the next leader of the PNP?
As Prime Minister, P.J. Patterson prepares to step down as leader of the People's National Party (PNP). The race is on for his successor! The four contenders are Dr. Peter Phillips, Dr. Omar Davies, Dr. Karl Blythe and the lone female Portia Simpson-Miller.
The recent Don Anderson Polls published in the Gleaner November 20, 2005 showed Portia Simpson-Miller way ahead of her comrades with 57.8%. Dr. Peter Phillips was next in line with 19.8%, Omar Davies had 7.2% and Karl Blythe brought up the rear with 6.2%.

Bruk Pocket Jamaican
"Recently, this Jamaican won the 10 million special lottery for a dollar. As soon as the office of the Lottery Corporation was open on the following day, he was there to collect his winnings.
Graciously, he presented his winning ticket to the clerk and in his best English uttered his request "Me cum fi collect the 10 millian dallars, si me ticket ya".
After reviewing and checking the ticket with his manager, the clerk returned and requested on how he would like his payments. The Jamaican replied "Mi wan all a de moni now". "Unfortunately, Sir" the nervous clerk responded, "The procedures are that we can only give you one million now and the balance equally over the next 20 years".
Furious and agitated, the Jamaican asked for the manager, who re-iterated "Sir, my assistant is correct, it is the regulation of the corporation that we initially pay you one million dollars now with the balance paid to you equally over the next 20 years".
Outraged, the Jamaican slammed his hand on the desk and shouted in anger, "Oonu tek me fi idiat, me wan all a de moni now or oonu gi me bak me rass dallar!!"
