SAfrica's ANC party to choose leader amid turmoil

(AP) ? South Africa's governing African National Congress political party will return to where it first formed a century ago to pick its next leader, at a time some believe the movement is fighting to regain its moral high ground.

Some 4,000 delegates will gather Sunday at its Mangaung conference, being held in the city also known as Bloemfontein, to choose whether President Jacob Zuma or his quiet, unionist deputy Kgalema Motlanthe should helm the party.

Whoever the party picks will likely be the next president of this nation of 50 million people, leading Africa's top economy into an uncertain future where all now have a right to vote, but don't have access to the country's wealth.
