Resolution of the crossroads status of my political career

During my boyhood years I joined a party marked by a legendary commitment to its Constitution with a culture for sober minded dispute resolution and with a recognition of the broad National Principles of Democracy, Unity, Self Reliance, Development and BOTHO as the fountain of inspiration for Government policies as well as being the basis of Botswana’s political culture and social disposition. 

Though the BDP was a constructive Party with a solid backbone and foresight as shown by the National Principles, it was not disposed to blind faith in preconceived doctrines.
