text: A naively optimistic view in my opinion.The thinly veiled lie of RET and the extent to which it involves senior ANC  members and outsiders is a far bigger issue than one man's lone endeavours. This is a massive problem that threatens to destabilize the entire country. Perhaps the writer finds the situation stimulating but if he stepped out into the broader SA context he'd discover that the disenfranchised and poor majority have had enough and are anything but excited at SA's medium to long term prospects.
