It depends who you are, just as then. But exiled Zimbabweans hope for a better Zimbabwe, not a return to Rhodesia, which is no longer anything but a certain woeful state of mind.
Zimbabwe in 1980 was a country with great potential which Mugabe has systematically ruined. Whether it can recover from what he did is debatable as so much long term damage has now been done to the infastructure.

Everybody knows what Bob is: a murderer since day one. Pity the decent candidates were so mysteriously bumped off.
Of course it can recover. It just takes a certain amount of political will--and money.
