President?

A person who doesnt know her history well.

A person who has shielded her brother in a murder case.

A person who is involved in a sugar scam.

A person who is involved in a bank scam.

A person who believes in ghosts and claimed that a man dead 38 years ago spoke to her.

She’s going to become the president, if the United “Progressive” Alliance and the Communists, who claim sympathy with the aam aadmi, have their way. Is that what we, the people, deserve in the 60th year of our independance? A criminal politician as president backed by a criminal government with an overwhelmingly criminal history?

Pranab Mukherjee claims that the people of India dont elect the President. The elected representatives (politicians) do.

And the aam aadmi is bewildered. Yet again, he’s reminded of his aamness. He’s shown how aam he is compared to our powerful politicians.

Dont we, the people, deserve better? Raise your voice! Paste the above poster on your blog/website. Spread the word.

Update:

Pratibha believes in astrology and feels that Pluto’s demotion may upset astrological calucations. The Hindu reports:

Rajasthan Governor Pratibha Patil has urged Indian scholars to study and assess the possible impact of recent changes in the status of Pluto as a planet on the astrological calculations. “There could be a better use and application of traditional knowledge with serious research,” she said.

“Considering the fact that there is so much interest as well as faith in astrology in India, there is need for in-depth study of the possible impact of the recent astronomical findings about the planets. Sometimes we read about 12 planets instead of nine earlier,” she said.

Darn darn! My intuition tells me the new planetary configuration may screw her nomination as a presidential candidate. If Pratibha loses the election, the UPA-Left should condemn the International Astronomical Union for having done a great disservice to the cause of women empowerment in male-dominated Indian society.
