The debate was attended by three of the seven invited candidates, with MacDella Cooper of the Liberia Restoration Party (LRP) joining Cummings and Dr. Jones. After the debate, the Daily Observer spoke with few people who felt that Cummings endeared himself to the Liberian public. One of these is Mr. Cummings’ who offers Liberians a true alternative—a true difference. Cummings remark came when Dr. Jones asserted at the second presidential debate yesterday at the Paynesville City Hall that Unity Party should not be reelected because of poor budgetary performance and financial waste. Dr. Jones, meanwhile, indicated that the Coca-Cola Company that Mr. Cummings once worked for as Vice President is laying off thousands of people, to which Cummings said the company, employs more people around the world than most institutions.
