That could have been Ms. Zille speaking. She could have been more explicit about the plundering by the ANC and how it affects the poor.
Nevertheless it was a respected, moral and admired black woman speaking so perhaps she will be heard by those who dismiss what “the madam” says.
Be afraid you thieving ANC bullies, be very afraid.

The fact that you are calling for real democracy (ie; we will vote for our representives and they will no longer be appointed by the party Bigwigs) means I will consider voting for you very seriously. Mrs. Mamphela Ramphele.

We can all see the ruling elite is serving itself at an expense of the poor, middle and upper class, I wonder what are they thinking now. I have already seen how die hard fans are bashing the Doc with nothing positive to say. I am really sick and tired of corruption news in this country we need a revolution really.

I hope she has good security. Nothing is more dangerous than a corrupt politician being separated from his millions.

If Ramphele is serious in changing how we vote for representatives i might juuuuuuuuuust think of supporting her!

Once Ramphele has tested the waters and got some politics cred she will join the DA, her thinking is very close to Zille already!

Qnly a combined opposition and Ramphele can save us from the criminal ANC!

Splitting the DA vote would be an act of conceit.
