Should we not distinguish between the man and the position? President Jacob Zuma as an individual is behaving very rationally, with all his focus on himself and all his tactics designed to benefit his personal ends. However, his power does not derive from his individual status but from his position as president. Considered purely as president, Zuma has to be judged to be crazy: his actions are traitorous and doing so much damage they are irrational to the point of madness. There must be a provision in the Constitution for removing a presidential nutcase. Or do we just let him carry on wrecking? Briggs, Edenvale
