We have had many rubberstamp presidents in the past.The system is to blame.Unless we can make this a non political election or a direct one like people voting ,these aberration will happen and happen in future also.
The problem is Dr.Kalam was too good.Let us stop moaning and wish the lady luck.Anyway Indian presidents are like retired citizens.I hope she can talk good English.May be Kalam can start his lectures with her and then move on to Madras University.
