Exactly the current president’s cup of tea – that what this presidential election has become – rocket science. But unfortunately, that doesnt do him much help, coz he has already backed out. But that’s only after doing a rose petal stunt of ‘will he, wont he’, and then saying he would stand for a second term only if he were assured of a victory. By those standards, i wonder how he was so active sending up rockets, considering that most of them came back faster than they went up. And forget achieving their objective, the only thing they succeeded in doing was to destroy some poor fishes’ homes in the arabian sea/ bay of bengal or create a theme park/ picnic spot for the fishes’ children. No wonder they always said there was always something fishy in India’s space research..sorry, i digress.. All said and done, doesnt look like the man who made the chikunguniya look fashionable, and the one who inspired salmaan for the ‘tere naam’ look is going to have a second term as Rashtrapati.
Which brings us to the prime contestant – the one who has been accused of shielding a killer, of defaulting onpayments for a factory. I say it is wrong that such a person should contest for the notional post of President, Indian politics has lost a true flag-bearer. She has awesome qualifications to be PM, but the nation is into non-controversial PMs these days, sigh. Chalo, at least this way, we get to see our first Rashtrapatni.
The current VP, was once upon a time, regarded as an almost definite P, but unfortunately for him, all his ex-supporters now only say, oh, woh?
Why am i writing about it? Because it was so damn inconsequential, but true to his name, Dr.Kalam, has converted the entire exrecise into a PJ !!
until next time, shall we tell the president?
