Hmmmmmm.....what do people now say about Benazir who was hailed as champion of democracy. It looks like PPP is her family property and she writes a will to hand it over her 19 year old kid and PPP leaders are ready to accept this kid as their chairman happily. What is his maturity to become a political leader at this young age. This is the democracy we are talking of in our sub-continent. Congress brings up kids like Rahul baba as their leader and same is the case with PPP in pakistan.

Unlike in India, this junior baba will be surgically Halal... In India, we are of the opinion that Gandhis will die out naturally out of our collective consciousness... This belief is though at great expense... But in Pakistan, they are of opinion that Kar kare so aaj, Aaj kare so ub..
We know from experiences with congress,dmk,jd(s), Shiv sena, TDP , Biju JD, Laloo yadav party, mulayam yadav party, ramadoss party to name a few that the money involved is so much that the parents think it is important to destroy the ambitions of partymen and prop their children as heirs. But to do it at 19 yrs is a SHAM, SHAME and dishonour to the pakistani people. One way is to establish term limits on people who control the money for the party and the prized PM'ship. Two (full) terms max or ten yrs of premiership. Thats it. It is important to break this cycle so new ideas and new people will do something to leave their mark in history

The term limits are for the indian condition otherwise, our nation is doomed.
PVN brought about liberalisation,IT revolution and ended the violence in punjab, Vajpayee completed massive infrastructure projects and initiated the peace process with pakistan on our terms. Manmohan singh ( in favourable press) say is quietly bringing about a revolution in the farming sector and our seaports. Even Rajiv who was PM for a single term initiated the telecom revolution. The combined effect of this has left india better. Pakistan should understand that making emotional decisions like this will hurt in the future

Why do you believe that the term of government leaders should be limited? Fidel Castro has been President of Cuba ever since one can remember. Hugo Chavez would like to be President for life. Despite more than sixty years of politics, our dear Jyoti Basu is still active!

Fidel Castro is a dictator and Jyoti basu should have ended after two terms as CM. He did not. WB is seeing the same set of ideas implemented for eternity. For good or bad, see how WB compares with other indian states.
World over, leaders are proclaiming, left-right-and-centre, that Benazir Bhutto was a champion of democracy!!! The reality is something else (no democracy in electing the successors). Are there no other leaders in the PPP, who can carry the baton of democracy. For generations, Indians Pakistanis (who incidentally r our brothers and sisters) were doing GHULAAMI to the Angrez log. Even now, the same trend is continuing. Public only can save themselves from such Ghulaami!!!
dear friend,please dont come into politics.see what people did to your mother.its so sad to not have a mother at such a young age.and why si anyone allowing him to come into politics.its such a dreadly situation there in pak.how are people even able to sleep,i dont understand.
Rahul Gandhi is the future destroyer of Hindus and India...Bhutto's son will be manipulated to create problems in Pakistan...US will have full fun & entertainment in the coming future & also chance to influence both the countries...As such they need something to tackle China's growing power which threaten's US dominance...

Whoever deserves the post, Bhutto or Gandhi, can come to power. Nevertheless, dynasty politics cannot blindly succeed anymore. Family members themselves know that ability matters.

Rahul Gandhi is the future hope of India. There is no doubt about this. But why do you drag the Americans into everything?

dont worry, pakistanis are fools like indians. they can easily tackle these inexperienced leaders. they follow islam and they will vote only to bring islam in pakistan, not any bhutto...
Probably Pakistan got what they deserved. Pakistan is the land where Terriorist took birth and grew. Now Pakistan is the victim of Terriorism. No Regrets for Madam Benazir's death.
