Mayawati is the better businesswoman than of a skilled politician. She know, how to sell Dalitisam and make money. May be after her 5 year rule, her name appear in the Billionare's list. India needs a 3 party system, Right, Left & Center. And the presence of regional, castiest parties will kill India's development. Why not vote for soem young netas this time.

Do not worry about Mayawati and her billions. We want to see Mayawati not only a billionaire but one of the richest person on the earth. A strong leader only can fight for us and get us justice from the centuries of hegemony of a few elite groups, also known as upper castes.

The fighting for social justice needs a strong leader. But the strength does not come through money. It comes through intellect and character. Mayawati lacks both. No doubt she is shrewed and as like any other normal polititian, wants to make a lot of money using her position. This has nothing to do with social justice. The biggest fighters for social justice in Maharashtra - Mr. Phule, Mr. Ambedkar, Mr. Karve, Mr. VR Shinde were not rich by any means and they did not need chief ministership to weild the influence on the minds of millions of Indians. Let us not glorify Mayavati. She is just another greedy and shrewed polititian. Appreciate her for her political acumen and that's it.

Mr. Joshi. You might praise Dr. Ambedkar in a public forum but we know what you speak about him in private. So no need to be diplomatic. Secondly Mayawati represents a more plural society. She has not sidelined the upper caste. But yes if you feel humiliated that a lower caste is going to rule the country then its your problem. Nobody can help you with that.

Joshi, You say that she wants to make a lot of money. So, what is the harm with that? Her enemies are so powerful (upper castes as a group) that they control almost all resources of this country and what ever wealth she accumulates will always remain insufficient. And remember, a leader like Mahatma Gandhi also needed help of money bags like Birla and Bajaj, while fighting a mighty British Empire.

And yes she will make a better PM than a 85 year old dinasaur.
