it is better to choose a non political person for the great post.We need people like Dr.Abdul Kalam or Dr. Radhakrishnan. The president has to take impartial and at times bold decisions. If we choose a political person its never happen. eg;just think about a person like G. sudhakaran, minister of Kerala becoming the president of india because of his plitical support.He dont know what he is talking. so our country requires a non- polical person for the prestigious post. HIGHLY QUALIFIED AND EXPERIENCED STATESMAN having a vision and cocern about the future generation must be chosen.
