Rediff needs to grow up. It is harping about Obama since few days to an extent its getting a bit too much. Does its have any editors who listen to readers? Then ask your selves why this sycophancy to an outside power?
The Amercia is Free country more than 200 years,India just 65 years.America faced civil war between northern states and southern states at the time of 16th(or 22nd) president Abraham Lincoln.We are also going to face this after 2014 elction at the time 13th president Pranob Mukerjee

You are wrong my freind ,peaple like you sow the seed of partition now whoever read this will start his evil design against india you people should be punished for saying this.
It is noteworthy that US Presidents assume a low profile immediately after leaving office and not seen much in public thereafter. They do not comment on the subsequent governments or the new President. Something that Indian politicians should learn!

Except R.Venkitaraman and APJ Abdul Kalam,all other former Indian preisdents assumed a low profile.Have any one heard about Neelam Sanjiva Reddy after 1982?
The Victory speech of Prez Obama is one of the most inspiring speech I have ever heard. In contrast, when our own Maun Mohan Singh opens his mouth once in 6 months,people are just put off. His dead speeches are so annoying that we feel like not only switching off the TV but to throw the TV out of the window. I wish we have a leader like Obama for 2 terms and India will be transformed. May be, Mr Narendra Modi could be the Man for India. He has got that ability and vision. Will we go for him? Or will we deny ourselves a strong political leader who can ensure better future for our gen-next in the name of "Secularism"? Because in India, Secularism sells better and all and sundries are playing the game.

Politicians are similar everywhere. However, in India, people have gone to the worst situations. We don't know when a political party pulls down or syuupports a government. Unless Narendra Modi takes the reins of India with good majority there is no hope for this generation. But he also cannot do too much, we are illiterate, deaf, dumb and blind voters.
In 1992, the first earth summit held at Rio D Jenaro, Brazil to discuss the environmental problems plaguing the Earth... But 20 years from that, earth has been reduced for a more catastrophic results.....
In India, the root cause is Corruption and a blatant disregard for environment... Western Ghats flora and fauna are actively destroyed.... The region near Mumbai are concertized at FULL THROTTLE.......... One interesting thing I will to tell...... The fate of Mithi River we all know....
Some years down today.... The FATE of GADEHSWAR RIVER in New Panvel will be same as of Mithi... (The place was so scenic some 6 years back that people used to go for picnic... but after some years.. it will be like a Mithi.......... All Greenery in New Panvel area is concertized.... The hills etc are rapidly flattened to give rise to very high rising towers...... Due to bad governance and un-accountability on welcoming housing projects, greenery along western ghats are vanishing around outskirts of mumbai. Western ghats are on the verge of destruction due so called "Vacation Homes". Mangroves are chopped of and land is reclaimed to fit (may be vote bank etc.). Nobody know what will be the fate of our nation due to these kind of Administration etc. Save NATURE so that the future generations will see the Nature's beauty from their own eyes rather than on Facebook, Photo prints etc.
