I am one of those millions of Indian citizens who respect Dr.Kalam, as President of India. Any person having been made a President has to be great. But, "greatest human being"??? Most certainly, No sir ! My country has had greater Presidents - more learned, unanimously chosen by all and not installed on political considerations, more mature, more presentable and graceful, speaking out more profoundly, and above all, a genuine article. To the best of my information, Dr.Kalam has no doctoral thesis on any subject to his credit for his doctorate. He shows great love and liking for children, but did not marry and can not know how one feels as a father and how a father loves his child. His 2020 vision of India is a pipedream, because many other already developed countries will surely make more progress than India because they start on a higher pedestal. The gap will in fact increase !He always gives an impression as if he is speaking without coprehending the full scope of what is talks. He shows undue and unjustifiable activism on some matters, and keeps mum on many burning issues and the nation`s anguish. But, he is better than some previous ones, and we may yet get a better one.

Be fair to the chair of the President. Well he is an idea man, See the various ideas he has given to each of our citizens then you will realize that this matter is important than anything else. Go to Rameshwaram and visit The House of Kallam then you will realize that he has not contributed to corruption. In fact the entire Rameshwaram could have been transformed by corrupt practices but he has stood there to see nothing happens by this way. He is only a President by nomination and if we want to root out corruption every one of us has to vote. Those 543 nos have to be taught a lesson and that can happen when there is a civil war in our country. That will happen when the rich is becoming richer and the poor is still becoing poorer. In india the role of our President is less and yer Our Honourable president has done is best to arrest the corruptive Practices of many past presidents. SN
