    "content": "Article 14 prevents one from being a member of several political parties; I think this is important because we have witnessed doublespeak in this country. People join political parties and talk against them. They undermine them as evidenced by the controversy over the House legal committee and others. The problem with that is not just that we undermine political parties, but as leaders we are becoming very bad examples. I mean, the whole country is watching politicians uniting or disagreeing on things like the Constitution or devolution. When it comes to something else, people who were adversaries again unite on the basis of no principle at all; they keep on shifting positions from time to time, depending on what you are gaining. I think we are known for that opportunism, and it is a very bad example to the rest of Kenyans, especially the youth who look upon us."
