Guys, Don't speak ill of the first son of the country! He may have dated a Columbian but that's only because he didn't want to hurt any Indian community by prefering one over the other. He is a Harvard-returned, so what if he could not get into regular courses, he passed a 6 month certificate course in photography there. That alone should give him access to Manmohan's chair. He missed his father while growing up, that's why he missed out on a career which his father had (as IAC pilot). It's not fair if we criticise Rahul for not having a career other than the one he is born with (as the scion of the ruling family). He has tried hard to look for one in the last decade or so which is much more than what we guys have spent looking for one. And he has willingly sacrificed a cushy role as super-PM's son to be directly in the line of fire of other netas. He has not earned a salary so far (except as MP) but we are told that he feels the pain of a hardworking middle class worker who has to work his ars only to see his taxes being used for politicians bunking work. So what if Rahul did not drive a car in a crowded city or learn to use a laptop or even speak in the parliament, he is whether we like it or not - THE FUTURE OF INDIA. I say give him a bharat ratna right now so that he can enjoy the adulation while still young and alive! And let's accept reality and pride our future.

He is trying hard these days-when the country is approaching a parliament election year and the question of the new PM has already taken the grounds- to show the aam admi that he is PM(permanent moroon?) material.His Dad did that years ago emulating the real Gandhi's third class train ride.The gaping Amethians will send him to parliament again.Suppose the rest of the Indians don't want him as the PM,will his mommy listen to it?
