I saluate the american's for electing Barack Obama... The entire world has a lot to learn from American Generiosity...
Although, we had Muslim Presidents and Sikh PrimeMinister and Christian Chief Ministers... All those are not really elected directly by the people... For example, ManMohan singh would have never got elected for PM if he contested directly...
We have a long way to go before we put our caste's, religions and other feelings.. and vote for the true Politicians!!!!
I hope that day is not far when India also has an able leader who rises above the petty politics and serves the country as a whole rather than treating it's population like a junk of votebank!!!
