wind of change

Berlusconi wants to run for a third term and the whole of Europe cries out in outrage! so what if the man has had bare issues- sex scandal(s), mafia connections and of course not having the interest of Italy at heart. Its the voters voting that need the pep talk and not the man. After all, democracy is for the people, by the people or is it... Beppe Grillo begs to differ. He has been banned from going on T.V for about 20 years, but you know what they say ' when you need to say something, you will always find your voice', I prefer the pidgin version 'person wey wear shoe, know where the thing the pepper am for leg'.
According to him, Berlusconi is irrational, old and Italy needs a wind of change. when I was watching the documentary, I was thinking 'hmm... interesting, it seems the western world is having leaders comparable to their African counter parts'.. I mean only in Africa will a president be in power for more than 20years and not even be considered old nor irrational. The feature ended with the presenter saying 'only Italy can a man facing such controversial issues and accusations survive so long. My response was 'welcome to my side of the world'....
