I beg to disagree. Ravi Krishna has foll choices- 1) Cultivate a God father in politics, pay sums of money, promise bribes in lieu of etc. etc. 2) Cultivate a base (say among professional, intellectuals) by cost effective advertising and PR'ship. He will have to generate funds online ala Obama style but which he can't do unless he awaken's the people's consciousness or more appropriately the "fear of goonda politicans mortgaging our country and children's future to vested interests in US, Italy or competing neighbors like CHina". 3) Start small and build up on small successes. Build name recognition SLOWLY and STEADILY. Take up issues which stir people like a red rag to a bull. Network with media; Network and start a party and invite membership; publish manifesto. Population control is something that bothers me no end. I am sure it bothers a lot others. Lack of Primary education and substandard municipal schools and teachers (graduates with 33% marks can become teachers) and bogus college eductaion (BED degrees are handed without real learning) are other issues that's keeping this country's millions of children devoid of education and future. These are issues no political leader is taking up because there is no money involved. THIS IS AN OPENING! YOU NEED peoples SUPPORT NOT goonda LEADERS SUPPORT. Once they see this KRISHNA getting public support, they will all line up behind him. Krishna can then play them.
