We should understand the qualities expected of a president especially in a Congress ruled era .If you look at their history ,they look for a man who is pliable,accomodating and doing things at their biding without murmur(a la Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed ).Dr Kalam does not fit in their scheme of things ,especially now when they do not have a majority on their own.So,even though he may be willing,he will not be nominated for sure.He became president due to NDA otherwise .
