Foreign AffairsRe: The Buhari Visit To DC: Boko Haram Or LGBT Rights by Phoenix001(m): 4:10pm On Jul 17, 2015
I don't see why we should fear about Buhari's trip to U.S. As long as it is going to be passed in Nigeria's NASS and not U.S's, it will not come to stay, not in this generation.
Homosexualism is rejected by our cultures and religions in Nigeria, where then will Buhari find the courage?

While some animals in human skin are thinking of how to detonate bomb in the name of God, there are others who are thinking of how to elevate God-given potentials in them to the benefit of mankind.
This is a good development.

Foreign AffairsRe: German Chancellor Angela Merkel Says She Disagrees With Gay Marriage by Phoenix001(m): 2:30pm On Jul 17, 2015
I like this woman a lot, he has spit without having to clean mouth. Cultural and religion issues such as marriage should not be by force, rather by convinction of the majority.
Buhari must be wary of U.S. and do only what Nigerians want.

Foreign AffairsRe: What Are The Prospects Of Hillary Clinton Becoming The Next US President? by Phoenix001(m): 1:42pm On Jul 17, 2015
I believe Democrat is the party on top for the job and any candidate they field at primary will likely be the next landlord/lady of the White House.
Currently, there are five Democratic Party contenders, they are Hillary Clinton, Lincoln Chafee, Martin O'Malley, Bernie Sanders, and Jim Webb. They all have good profile and seem capable to sit in the oval office.
However, by my assessment, Lincoln Chafee may have problem with trust among the party chieftain cos he has been in two diffferent parties before-Republican and Independent. He used those platforms to win elections for Governor and Senator before decamping to Democrat. He may not be trustworthy.
Also, Chafee may be seen to be weak in character and may not be fit for the office. This is because his positions on military and use of force in international diplomacy is not realistic if America still wants to be at the top. A world power that dialogue all the time cannot last.

As for Marting, he is also good, especially with the masses who benefitted with employment opportunity during his tenure as Governor of Maryland. However, despite his grassroot experience having started as Mayor of Baltimore, he seems to have problem with top economic guns of United States who can influence party ticket in his disfavour. While governor, he increased personal income taxes, sales taxes, and cigarette taxes amog others. I hope you know that most of this businessmen are party financiers.

On the part of Bernie Sanders, his major problem is his socialist stand on economy and we know that no successful business owner will support that. He once declared (maybe to curry favour from voters) that US and its government "belong to all of the people and not to a handful of billionaires, their super PACs and their lobbyists." He should have said that after ticket is handed over to him. He has promised to raise taxes on rich people as well.
However, he is a social media person and he may have many youths and poor behind him but he is too sarcastic of his party mates and contender. I think he needs not criticising other contenders outside his party until ticket is won. They will see him as desperado. He is also the oldest(73yrs).

Jim Webb is another personality from Democrat. The former Virginia senator has credit of having served in the military and he just declared early this month.
He supported Obama's healthcare policy and had openly supported civil servants in demanding for federal increament in minimum wage. He is well grounded in military and his propositions on defense and security have been seen satisfying.
However, he may be seen as not having enough experience of governance and administration because he had only served in legislative capacity unlike others who were either former governors or emissaries. Also, his campaign train has not moved far and Gay community may pay him back for distant past criticism of the bill, even that he has changed his view.

A first lady for 8 years, Hillary Clinton is the first former first lady to serve both in the U.S. Senate and in a president's cabinet. She is the most vocal and most popular of all (more than Joe Bidden, the VP who may also be interested) Democrat's candidate. She contested and lost Democrat's presidential primary nomination to Obama in 2012 and since then had been going round with her husband to set her record straight. She seemed to have learnt from her 2012 defeat because black community rejected her and had become a constant visitor and friend of the blacks.
Maybe because she declared first, she is the most travelled candidate. She had almost toured the whole states in the U.S. to sell her dream. To be honest, she is the most experienced, having served as Secretary of States, Senator and First lady. While in government, she had succeeded with foreign policy isseus, economy, defense among others.
However, there are conservative people who do not want women President and didn't believe U.S. should have female president. She is close to the current government and her husband(fmr President Clinton)also wields influence in the party.

In conclusion, I think Hillary stands better chance ahead of all if gender biase will not come in. However, I see Martin O'Malley coming second. They had both campaign far more for people to disregard their presence in the race.
