Being a Gandhi is like being a part of a monarchy.Anybody who happens to be a part of the family inherits the clout and the power of indias first family. Sonia gandhi remains a novice even after being around the corridors of power in delhi. Her inability to handle simple interviews shows that she is totally unawares of political environment. Yet she manages to hang on the reigns of congress party. Rahul Gandhi is a disaster and the bjp must be licking its lips in anticipation for the eventual coronation. No name holds such a clout in the political firmanent as the gandhi name. The kennedys were active for quite a while in united states of america but they didnt appropiate the party name in a manner that the congress have done. The problem lies in the party. The lacunnae is so wide that it is difficult to fill the chasm between what is actually required and what is avialable. Therefore the attempt to hang on to the gandhi name.
