The 12th President
The Congress and it's allies have created history by giving India her first lady president. This contribution will be trumpeted many a time in the years to come, however at all debates that would question the merit of the appointment ,we will most definitely see the trumpeteers slip into the shadows. Much has been written in the media against her as a nominee, the criminal culpability of both her husband and her brother, the siphoning of funds of the banks that she governed which were led to bankruptcy, her ability to have conversations with the departed.............The allegations are far too many and it does raise doubts about her credibility. But, for all that has been said, the nation has to accept her as the President. The media understands this, and acts in propriety. The public will compare her to her able predecessor, it is inescapable. But for all the compraisons that we would like to draw, a fine line should be drawn as to its limits. If it were to slip beyond comparison and into the realms of accusation, it would be unacceprtable. The Supreme Commander has to be respected, whether the bearer of the post deserves it or not.
