What would the premise of your debate be?

On what would you base a counter-assertion that a majority of liberians would not have voted for one of thier own - and I mean this not just in terms of ethnicity but also on the fact that George Weah came from a background similar to that presently being experienced by the majority of liberians.

The likes of ellen johnson sirleaf, in spite of her native attire, are almost as far from the reality of African life as any other alien entity. So, in your opinion, (or best estimate), what could be the percentage of uninformed, ignorant, or just plain dumb liberians who are unable to tell the difference between a jjd candidate and a man who came up from an environment similar to thiers?
