My opinion on Liberty and Necessity

First, I conceive that when it cometh into a man’s mind to do or not to do some certain action, if he have no time to deliberate, the doing it or abstaining necessarily follows the present thought he hath of the good or evil consequence thereof to himself. As for example, in sudden anger, the action shall follow the thought of revenge; in sudden fear, the thought of escape. Also when a man hath time to deliberate, but deliberates not, because never anything appeared that could make him doubt of the consequence, the action follows his opinion of the goodness or harm of it.

And to consider an action is to imagine the consequences of it, both good and evil. From whence is to be inferred, that deliberation is nothing else but alternate imagination of the good and evil seque

Only coup d'état can oust Maghufuli, not Ballot

As 29 million liberal minded Tanzanians head to cast their votes tomorrow Wednesday, 27 October 2020, less do they know the outcome of the elections are already out and de facto and de jure imperial president dictator John Pombe Maghufuli together with his CCM members of parliament have already won in partnership with NEC and are now busy planning on how to change the constitution to lift five years two term limit for president to pave way for him to remain in power for decades.  President Maghufuli and his main challenger Tundu Lissu Tanzanian presidential elections has seen 17 candidates rise to the top job but competition is between the incumbent president John Pombe Maghufuli of CCM and Tundu Lissu of CHADEMA party who have made a coalition with ACT Wazalendo party to oust the president who ascended to power in 2015.  After ascending to powers, Maghufuli turned to be Africa's most controversial leader and joined the list of dictators. He had mostly restricted opposition movemen

Biden vs Trump; Old men's doddering race to White House

With only few days until the American presidential election, I have decided to obey my political call and share my analysis and prediction. Biden and Trump during presidential debate Presidential Election in US is scheduled for Tuesday November 3, 2020 and simply is between two antagonizing parties, Democrat and Republican. This Election undergoes two crucial independent voting stages; The Popular Vote and The Electoral College Vote although earlier maybe determinant of later under 'winner takes all' where presidential candidate who receives most votes in any given state is assured of all college votes in such state. In 2016, Hillary Clinton won Popular votes with 65,853,514 votes against Donald Trump with 62,984,828 votes but Donald won college votes with 304 votes which even surpassed the required 270 votes against Hillary Clinton's 227 votes. This was the seventh presidential elections in History of US where a presidential candidate won popular vote but lost college vote

Roman Empire

Beginning in the eighth century B.C., Ancient Rome grew from a small town on central Italy’s Tiber River into an empire that at its peak encompassed most of continental Europe, Britain, much of western Asia, northern Africa and the Mediterranean islands.  Among the many legacies of Roman dominance are the widespread use of the Romance languages (Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Romanian) derived from Latin, the modern Western alphabet and calendar and the emergence of Christianity as a major world religion.  After 450 years as a republic, Rome became an empire in the wake of Julius Caesar’s rise and fall in the first century B.C. The long and triumphant reign of its first emperor, Augustus, began a golden age of peace and prosperity; by contrast, the Roman Empire’s decline and fall by the fifth century A.D. was one of the most dramatic implosions in the history of human civilization. As legend has it, Rome was founded in 753 BC by Romulus and Remus, twin sons of Mars, the god o

Which is the best form of Government?

Government as to numbers of rulers; In classical Greece, Aristotle laid the foundations of understanding Political Science, specifically its rudimentary nature. He believes that government can be classified into three categories, these are: Government of one; Government of few and; Government of many.  British monarch A government ruled by one entity is called Monarchy, a government ruled by the few was named after Aristotle, Aristocracy while the state headed by many is recognized as Democracy.  Aristotle argued that when a monarch started to rule for self interest and disregard the felicity of the people, it’s government would be classified as tyrannical. Many government in ancient times became tyranny, like in Kings of Europe and Emperors of Asia.  The government of the few was a bit different from monarchy, Aristotle described it as the government of the best. The leadership is based on physical, intellectual and moral standing of a person, basically a concept of credentials in our

Candidates Elections Rules Interpreted

MPs and senators who lost their seats to MCAs and never petitioned the Elections are currently blaming their brains which couldn't comprehend the 200 pages constitution or their advisors after High Court has nullified the election of Gatundu North MP Hon Anne Wangari Kibe as she was still an MCA when contesting. Also the Governors who lost to their Senators! my 2017 argument and understanding of the constitution still remains; an MCA doesn't qualify to contest for any other seat apart from Gubernatorial Seat unless he or she resigns before February 8 in Elections year. A Governor is only qualified to contest for an MCA seat and does not qualified to contest for any parliamentary or presidency seat unless resigns by February 8 in Elections year. A Senator or an MP is only qualified to contest for parliamentary or presidency seat but is not qualified to contest for an MCA or Gubernatorial Seat unless resigns before February 8 in Elections year. Gubernatorial Seat has a two terms
