this guy knows what he is talking about. He choses his words so carefully

He makes me proud being a Keralite

I don't understand what is the problem with criticizing Nehrus foreign policy? even If he had criticized the foreign policy it shouldn't make a difference cause those would have been his views

@iliketrippyshit Sure,you have a point!But these politicians aren't my voice and neither are the voice of thousands of people i know..So maybe tharoor can be my voice???

An coming to the point that he isn't able to interact with these politicians and enforce anything,i guess you are implying that those 'voices of people' are able to enforce things which benifit the collective society efficiently.If you are,then we disagree heartily,my friend nd good bye and goodluck with your bunch

@tapasimd .....in effect.... in revolving our perception and our thoughts around one specific headline and and basing our votes on the same WE are the uneducated people... now given that mr tharoor who i respect deeply is simply a victim of this shit , first i hope you realize how completely full of shit the media is and second i hope you realize that your perceptions of our politicians are simply the brainchild of these individuals who fukd your hero over..

[iliketrippyshit]

@tapasimd more importantly you need to understand india and not just the headlines of what the shitty media describe it as.. the media is corrupted my friend..and they do a lot more damage than one politician can

[iliketrippyshit]

@tapasimd ...i'll continue later

[iliketrippyshit]

@tapasimd .....and now back to the point i made about why i feel uneducated isn't the right analysis of the people you condemn... becoming a politician in and of itself is education enough... its a long hard process, and people start straight out of college to make burrows towards it... you need to understand the people's needs, you need to learn how to "talk", you need to learn how to mingle, you need to understand the society , and be malleable in the face of its changes, ...

[iliketrippyshit]

@tapasimd a politician is simply a transmission channel fro the voices of the people... a supplementary attribute of a politician would be the ability to enforce the merits of specific demands... you dont need a masters in history or a phd for this...thats an underlying point... second overriding point is that given that he doesnt fit in with these "uneducated" people you are talking about his ability to enforce anything in parliament is biased downwards..
