How CORD can win the 2017 general elections

We might all agree that Jubilee stands a higher chance of winning in the next general elections. This is true for some reasons such as CORD has no flag bearer yet and there is a high likelihood of fallout once that is done.
So let me show you how CORD can win the next general elections in the following points; Using both candidate change and Mutahi's Tyranny of Numbers.
 

1. Remove Raila out of the picture totally. Why? There is already a feeling even among his supporters that he may just not win, his name has also been tainted and he is an easier target for malice and propaganda. Uhuruto have once beaten him and can still beat him with state machinery 
2. Give it a "Kalonzo Tosha" declaration by Baba himself. Kalonzo will bring in all Kamba and most of the Eastern votes. He is admirable and difficult to taint and malign, he can easily get votes across board. He is an easy product to sale but get a strong Think-Tank to help him draft a realistic and appealing Manifesto.
3. Bring in a DP inform of "Ali Hassan Joho". You want to bring in all Coastal votes and Muslim votes that include Northern, remember no Muslim has ever held such a high position in government hence high likelihood of all Muslims voting for him to the last man. Joho is equally lovable and a campaign machine. This move will also cool temperatures in the coastal region as Joho and Hassan Omar have already begun the battle for Mombasa governorship. Give it to Omar.
4. With the above duo of "KaloJoho" and baba's backing, CORD is able to consolidate votes from coast, Eastern, North Eastern and Nyanza almost to the last man and almost 3/4 of Nairobi.
