We read many new paper articles, and watch TV ,download Twitter and Face book and note that there are many contenders who claim that they are suitable to become candidate for the next Presidential Election .
I personally think that list of names are eligible to contest because so much publicity is given.
HE Maithreepala Sirisena
Sagarika Sirisena
Ranil Wickramasinghe
Colombo Mayoress
MP Marikkar ( Only muslim who has TV backing )
Mahinda Rajapakse ( dis qualified due to restriction to contest 3rd time)
Sarath Fonseka
Gotabhaya Rajapkse
Basil Rajapakse
Chamal Rajapakse
Namal Rajapkse ( he is disqualified as per amendment to constitution due underage )
Rajitha Senaratne
Chatura Senaratne ( Calims that he has done so much to the country )
Patali Champaka Ranwaka
JVP leader –Rohana
Athuraliaye Rathana ( fighting to ban Glycophospate )
Mangala Smaraweera
GMOA head –Padeniya
Farmers Union Leader
Mangala Samaraweera
Wignewaran
Nayananada Kodituwwaku
Young lady lawyer who exposed judges
Ranjan Ramanayake aka Ranja
Duminda Silva ( is he is exonerated !)
Hirunika (to give a fight to Duminda)
Sirasa owner
Derana owner
Hiru TV owner
TNL owner T Wickrmasinghe ( who has been penalised by the incumbent )
And finally
Mr Modi ( to be granted Sri Lankan Citizenship and he was a Gram /Chai wala who came up the ladder )
Our coconut plucker ( who even carries his mobile up the tree to watch Derana News and face book )
My driver ( who is very conversant with the poor man’s pulse )
And Myself as I am over 60 years and I have lot of experience in hiring and firing
Sri Lankan s are so naïve and they may agree to following
First we hold a Primary Election to select best 5 out of above list using Dialog voting system by SMS in the same way as selecting Sri Lankan version of I have got talent )
Then we hold the main election for the President and impose a rule not have any public meeting or any banners not TV and paper Advertisement or face book publicity
