thanks for allowing space. i find it strange that someone in zambia today can talk of similarities between usa and zambia.this is because elections in zambia were simply not transpare and the so-called observes failed to substantiate their call that elections were free and fair. on the other hand if rupiah said he will not reign over a divided people.why is not stepping down by now because in asmuch as we pretend zambia currently is not united because the mmd rigged the elections.mcain conceded defeat because he lost openly,but our president chilufya did not under clear rules loss the elections.

It is very unfortunate that someone with very little knowledge in politics in this political world can even try to compare zambian election to this great nation America. If you have nothing to write about don't expose your ignorance in public.You Zambians don't know anything about real democracy. America chose a young man with vigor to lead this great nation forward but you favored an out dated politician to lead you back wards.Obama led a good campaign, polls and many American wanted that change from Obama, but in Zambia it was Sata who led a good campaign and according to exit polls, it was Sata the people of Zambia needed with his message of change but he lost the election.Zambia can not be compared to America this is the reason why many people like America.
