Manifesto ni contract, ni social contract. Inaweza kuwa si legally binding contract (that is also debatable, in a lawsuit society kama US unaweza kupigwa lawsuit kwa kutotimiza election promise) lakini ni contract.
So far issue si whether hii ni "legally binding contract" or not, ni whether it is a contract or not.
Yaani Nape anajionyesha alivyo low tu.
Si kweli,manifesto siyo legally contract,kwanza inabidi pia uni convince howa manifesto is a contract to begin with.....
Contract Law
What are the key elements of a binding contract?
Competent Parties - For a contract to be valid, each side must have the capacity to enter into it. Most people and companies have sufficient legal competency. A drugged or mentally-impaired person has impaired capacity and chances are a court may not hold that person to the contract. Minors (e.g., usually those under eighteen) cannot, generally, enter into a binding contract without parental consent, unless it is for the necessities of life, such as food, clothing, or for student loan contracts.
Consideration - If the other side is to be held to the contract, you must give up something in exchange. This is called consideration. No side can have a free way out or the ability to obtain something of value without providing something in exchange. Money is the most common form of compensation, but it can also be property, giving up a right or valid claim, making a promise to do or not to do something, or anything of value. Agreeing to perform an illegal or illicit act is not consideration and the contract is void.
Unapozungumzia contacts especially btn mwananchi na mgombea, means that each side must be clear as to the essential details, rights, and obligations of the contract. Putting the deal down on paper prior to signing it goes A LONG way to avoid future misunderstandings and disputes.....Je wananchi wanaelewa hilo?
NB:Ni kweli hata kina Karl Peters walikuwa na "Contracts" btn our leaders....Contracts ambazo walizi enforce legally.
Kuna grey area ambayo inaleta upumbazaji wa wananchi kuhusiana na vinavyoitwa mkataba kati ya wananchi na wagombea uongozi ama viongozi,na ndio maana Taifa letu kwa sehemu kubwa ni lawless.
Hakuna mtu kwenye mawazo ya mwananchi wa kawaida hata hivyo ambaye anaamini eti kuna mkataba wa kisiasa kati ya wananchi na viongozi ambao ni legally binding,then wanaota kwasababu ya the so called contract,legality yake ni kwenye ballot box ambayo hata hivyo matokeao yake ni ni mostly riggerd.
