'The danger to South Africa is not Jacob Zuma but a citizenrycapable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far
easier to limit and undo the follies of a Zuma presidency than to restore
the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate
willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper
and far more serious than Mr. Zuma, who is a mere symptom of what ails South
Africa.

         Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast
confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a
Jacob Zuma, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive amultitude of fools such as those who made him their President.'
