well,are u sure he is the answer,can't he be a regular indian speaking his voice.look at the people working for the party,when sonia won the elections people were takin swords in their hands trying to drive people away and climbing trees not to get down and so many hilarious things when sonia said no to "prime ministership" and this is the image the congress has put in front of the world.you who had put this article in the rediff ,know yourself what our country needs.i believe is " clear the mess,make it decent and then get things done".we as indians want to potray a image of our country,what are we doing towards it.If rahul believes he can do that,let him start.the question is "how far will he go?how far can he go?how far will the peopleie,other politicians let him go?and how far will the terrorists let him go?".
Middle East vrs India: rahul gandhi

I went to visit some middle east countries. There I see the hoardings of these dictators/monarchists. Every Institution was named after these dictators. The airports, the hospitals, and other important institutions.
When I came back to USA, I found the media harping on the issue, how everything was named after Saddam in Iraq.
Then I realized, that we in India have been doing the same for last 50 years. Everything from universitites, hospitals, roads, colleges, shopping markets, etc. have been named after 3 people. Nehru,Indira and Rajiv. We have systematically perpetuated monarchy albeit in a democratic manner. I am sure Rahul will become the next PM. But, is there no better alternative to the person who could not graduate from Stephens/Harvard. How much do we know of him (or about Sonia)? What are his moral values? What kind of intellectual abiliity he has shown by giving a nice speach? We as a nation know more about Princess Diana as compared to Rahul Gandhi/Sonia Gandhi.
Well it does not matter. He is nice looking, and is the scion of Nehru family (which they call as Gandhi family). I am despaired.
