Pushing the envelope of change

Hope First Group was really established to help people deal with transition.

I cannot help but think about the U.S as she prepares for a transition of sorts and as battles begin for
the white house.

My question is did the election of Barack Obama mean that the U.S was ready for change and if it did how far is the U.S and her citizens willing to push the envelope of change.

Is the Country willing enough to elect a woman (most of what is celebrated for blacks, also often includes the rights of women)?. Is the country willing to go this way thereby preserving the democrats and restoring the W.H to the Clinton's?
Should they wait for the power of that same name at a later stage so that a mother (Hillary) instead prepares the spot for a daughter (Chelsea). Or is the time ripe for a handover to a dynamic leader (Christie) whose 
frankness and ability to handle disaster illustrates the challenges of the future (nature-centered).

On the home front (Uganda), some analysts (Andrew Mwenda) have suggested a transition of power favoring a the first family with a less contentious personality in the name of the first lady (Janet Museveni).

There have been certain movement in the military that seem to favor the young but i suspect that Uganda will
adopt an Egyptian model where the military stands in the background in defense of democracy while enjoying a sizable chunk of cash and influence in the region.
This is also the model that i believe South Sudan should adopt. Battle hardened men are not likely to think
in terms of negotiation. They need to find positions in on the sidelines
as defenders of the nation. In their place educated men need to be allowed to take center stage in the
governance of the nation.

Because vast swathes of the population are still uneducated, the nation should take advantage of
their cultural institutions to define new leadership models.
 

In some ways Uganda is dealing with the similar challenges over transition.
It is less frightening to deal with change if it comes with the fairer less threatening species.
There is a possibility of challenge that would shift the power a little east (Rebecca Kadaga). Her portfolio
is rather diverse and as an insider she seems less threatening.

We are watching to see if change in Uganda will be translated in a leadership with military leaning or if our collective boldness will cause a shift towards the women.
