RE:Leave it to the leaders
by Sharad on Apr 24, 2008 12:58 PM

Don't give it up that easily. I am glad that Indians are able to discuss issues of national importance, and are making their opinions known, whether FOR or AGAINST. Before INTERNET came, we did not have the opportunity and we were voiceless except at Election time. The official media was GIVING US THEIR OPINION. We never had a chance to express ordinary citizens opinion on a daily basis. THIS IS IMPORTANT IN A DEMOCRACY, and this is how INSTITUTIONS become strong. This is the first time, the official media (news organizations) are able to get instant access to public opinion and YOUR OPINION SHAPES THE MEDIA'S OPINION. THIS IS GREAT. KEEP IT UP, WHETHER YOU ARE FOR OR AGAINST the nuclear deal.
