i would like to thank Mr.A.P.J.ABDUL KALAM not only for being a good President, but also for being such a visionary and for advocating the virtue of thinking big and aiming high among the children of INDIA. He gave the children the courage to dream and his interaction with them gave a new meaning and direction in their life. He taught them of the need to be patriotic but not fanatic.He took pains to travel across the country and interact with the people , listening to them and offering his views. He was a PEOPLE'S PRESIDENT. That i think is his greatest achievement and he will be remembered as a person who used the highest postion to the betterment of people and not for his own. It is a shame that the calculative and narrow hearted politicians donot found him suitable for a 2nd term. We could understand the leftists for opposing him as they were against his first term also and ahd a contestant against him. But one could never fathom the fact the Congress and B.J.P, those unusual allies in having him elected as the President, found out after 5 years that he is no longer suited for that post. May be it is becuase of the fact they only now found out that he is not a cheap politician who dances to their tunes and he is a proud INDIAN who would never let these political HIGDAS to dictate terms to him. once again thank you SIR, for letting us have those wonderful years of thinking, national pride and letting us know that there was a PRESIDENT who cared about the people of this na
