At this point of time, when any intelligent, educated citizen is hardly interested in the political scene in India, Rahul Gandhi does evoke a response. Partly because a lot of people who matter - like the middle class, the urban working class, the nouveau rich, are impressed by his indifference to power, and to be able to associate him to give Indians and the Congress Party concrete evidence of development. Well,if he is the answer to the Congress, he is doing a fine job of avoiding the power, which does not significantly a charecterisitic of a congress person. The first power struggle for him would probably begin at home, where he would have to teach and reach out to millions of Indians still fixated over royal rulers. Coming from a complete apolitical person, I think Rahul is not the answer, nor is he the problem. To expect him to carry the burden is also not fair enough, but at the rate which Congress leaders have fallen like a pack of cards in the face of corrupt practices over the decades, he has no choice but to give the HAND a helping hand. Leaders are born, leadership is not thrust upon them. So let's wait and see, if He is the answer or what??
