Sonia Gandhi is a great personality, but not because of her own scheming or cunning at all ! She is great because she has been made great by right minded people of this country, which fortunately is still a vast majority. Sonia has no selfish interests, unlike the names you have mentioned. There is no need to feel strongly about India being guided and led by our truly great Prime Minister and by truly great Indian, Sonia Gandhi. You should never forget that this country was ruled by the Mughals and the ritish for a thousand years !! The Gandhi family has done great sacrifices for India, which no Bajpayee/ Advani/ Rajnath/ Jayalalithaa, Mulayam or Chandra Babu can and will ever do. Kalam was really a person installed by BJP for their immediate political gain. I pray to Almighty od that our PM and Sonia Gandhi and President-elect Pratibha Patil live long and guide and lead this nation.
