    Listening to some of those people talking about election in the Jamaica, the worst election in the history of Jamaica is. 1980 then 1976, the other elections was not violent at all. They maybe have a few little pockets of fighting, but nothing to compared with 1976 and 1980. I been living in Waterhouse since 1968, and I witnessed 1972,1976,1980,89,92 . I worked in the security forces patrolling in those areas on election day. So I know what was taking place at the polling stations,in the Kingston western division.I was working with a team checking all the polling stations in Kingston western, calling for supports as back up.

      @@paulreuben7343 How much you are going to pay me for my valuable information,am just kidding my son. Most of the younger generation in Jamaica does not want to learned, from their elders. Since this You Tube channel came in, some of them is experts, you as the elders cannot tell them nothing at all. I was born long before independence august 6 th 1962,I was in elementary school those days. Before they changed it to all-age and primary,then high school.That is why I don't engaged with some of these younger generation, unless they want to know about certain things.I migrated from Jamaica to the United States, long before cellphone 📱 came in, so all the excitement what am seeing here. I just laughed at the whole idea, because a person is fool to what he does not know,ok.

      Richard Blackwood is semi lunatic protaining to what he has said about the PNP party government ministers them, in 1980. That is when Jamaica got messed up, when the Jlp party took over. That is why people like Richard Blackwood and many more youngsters, don't have a kill in Jamaica. Because during the 1980s all the training centers across Jamaica, Edward George Seaga and his labourites ministers closed them down. All the social programs that the PNP party government ministers them puts in placed, for the majority of Jamaicans. They were destroyed by the Jlp party government ministers them,the only two of the programs from the PNP party government. Which the jlp party government ministers them keep in place, because they are using the money to help run the government ministries them. When there is a shot fall of revenues,is the housing trust fund and the education money. But all the rest of programs, the jlp party government ministers closed them down. Which is really affecting the majority of Jamaicans,who useto inherited from it. You have some really educated fools in Jamaica, because without the PNP party government ministers them. Didn't brought in common entrance in 1957, the majority of Jamaicans wouldn't know what an high school is. Because their parents couldn't afford to pay their education,so Richard Blackwood maybe was too small to understand what was going on in Jamaica or. He let his parents telling him stupid things, about the PNP party government ministers who developed Jamaica and. Put thousands of poor Jamaican people into a decent houses to live, so if that is communist Richard Blackwood. Then I can see that you are suffering from a mental health problem, you should be in the Bellevue mental hospital on Windward road. Richard Blackwood do you know what Bustamante told Norman Washington Manley, when he won in 1955. Why he is building so schools for those poor people children,let them go and work in the cane fields with their parents. Because once you educated them,the same poor people children them is going to turned their backs on you and. Bustamante was right,he further said, that I won 2 elections in 1944 adult suffrage, also 1949 and. He does not build one school, because he doesn't want them to over throw him. These are the lessons I am giving Richard Blackwood,I don't know where in Jamaica he is from but. He is one of those lossed student,he is lacking proper understanding about the history of Jamaica.I am leaving him at that, now the jlp party government ministers them is. Turning on the pressure on his own people them, because what they were looking for. The jlp party government ministers them disappointed them very badly, because they have brains, but they does not know how to utilize it at all, ok.
