Asif Zardari as President? Oh my God!!

Today I read in online news that Asif Zardari's (AZ)name is being proposed by PPP for the post of President of Pakistan. I also heard in the news channels that MQM will back his candidacy. What a blatant turn around by this party's chief who is demonstrating for a long time that he is without any morals. But which politician in Pakistan has?

I remember around 1999-2000 when I used to work in Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS), there used to be a VIP room in the private ward in which AZ used to be under house (hospital) arrest. Everyone back then and even now knows his potential in corruption. Who would have thought at that time in 1999-2000 that one day the people of Pakistan will allow a person like AZ to hold such a prestigious post as the President of their country, let alone allow him to be the party chief! But things are happening and that too real fast. The people of this country have become senseless. One day it seems, he will become the President and no one will seem to care.

That day, I think, will be culmination of a plot that had gone into effect with the elimination of Benazir Bhutto. Quite conveniently, the blame had been put on Musharraf or militants. But who had gained the most from this. AZ, of course.

We can't blame our destiny for this. We, as a nation, are to blame because we allow such things to happen. We will get the same rulers as we are ourselves-senseless, immoral and corrupt.
Unless we rise to the occasion and do our moral duty by whatever means, this will not stop. So let us start educating people and raise our voices in whatever forum we can raise our voices in and start making the difference.

I think all of The Pakistani nation hav very short memory...All those people who support PPPP and PML N have forgotton all those years which I refer to as the "dark Pakistani era of the 1990's", I have no interest in ppl who elected Mr.10% on 18 February 2008.
But I love Pakistani and I m proud to be a Pakistani.

I will defend MQM here....They are supporting PPPP in Sindh becoz if they don't, Mustafa Kamal will loose all his powers and good progress in Karachi will stop. So, MQM is supporting PPPP until the next elections occur.

If u won't to argue with me or u won't to have a debate with me, I m ready.

In the end, Asif Zardari (Mr. 50%), or any man in Pakistan is not capable of becoming a president. No one is sincere....but I think Army is..what do u think?
