dBaldeh I think that you deserve an apology for certain over-reactions, when topic was introduced as "Unofficial positions"

It is just lately I realised that there are some valid points that may have been related to BOTH PDOIS & UDP camps!

All 3 positions (PDOIS unofficial position), I think you tried to highlight some key areas from PDOIS proposals; especially Agenda 2011.

This point on UDP unofficial position; "3. UDP - Primary elections to select a flagbearer from different opposition parties is not feasible and UDP will not participate in such a primary."; appear to relate with this revealing statement from Fatou Jaw Manneh's interview with UDP leader, as quoted;
"In the same vein he categorically ruled out the notion of initiating a nation wide primary as a vehicle for settling on a
flag-bearer saying such a move is impractical, unnecessary and unprecedented. He said individual political parties can resort to primaries to choose their candidates ."UDP Leader - Lawyer Ousainou Darboe

Refer Maafanta.com No Defeatism. We should not let Jammeh highjack the government again by default , says Ousainu Darboe in a phone conference with Gambian on-line media publishers under http://www.maafanta.com/OusainuDarboePressconference.html

ON A FINAL NOTE I THINK I HAVE GATHERED SUFFICIENT INFORMATION, OPINIONS, COMMENTS & PROPOSALS TO EXECUTE THE MELTING POT! AS PROMISED!
