Daughter: Appa, how does one become a Prime Minister or a President?
Me: What do you mean?
Daughter: I mean, what does one have to study? Just as you have to study Medicine to become a doctor?
Me: Let me think. ….What you need to do is to complete a Bachelor’s course in Arts, followed by a Master’s.
Daughter: How does that help you become President?
Me: Well, that’s what this guy called Baracko did.
Daughter: Baracko?
Me: Yes, he did his B.A and then his M.A and called himself Barack Obama. That's how he became President .
That's not right, he did Law in Ivy League, he had a dream that he followed with all vigor, also, had standards even in politics. He gave hope and substantiated with talking points. He got the right people for the right job. I Love OBAMA!
ReplyDeleteI agree. I look upto Obama too. He is not only well-educated, articulate but he seems compassionate too. He has beaten all odds to reach where he has. I love Obama too.
