<p>At least one political analyst is of
the belief that Dr Peter Phillips can benefit from the bruising presidential
contest that he won by a narrow margin on Saturday, September 7.&nbsp;</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"It's not that bad a result for the PNP, as the structure of the party is still in place, and they went with Phillips," political analyst Kevin O'Brien Chang told <strong>BUZZ</strong>.</p>

<p>The four vice presidents and six
regional chairmen all backed Phillips over Peter Bunting, who was denied the
presidency on his 59<sup>th</sup> birthday.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>O'Brian Chang said Bunting was by no
means disgraced and that it now behoves Phillips to embrace Bunting's ideas to
move the party forward.</p>

<p>"Bunting ran a better campaign
with more energy and a coherent message, and the PNP should use the ideas in a
General Election,” he said.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>He said that tempers will eventually
cool, as Comrades want to win state power.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>On Saturday, delegates voted 1,427 to
1,351 to keep Phillips as president of the PNP.</p>
