All that Bashing: RG



Apparently i must have uttered something unforgivably stupid to get a - "so where'd you pick it from? RG quote?"

I am no RG fan, do not see him as a Prime Ministerial Candidate but the poor guy gets really bashed up thanks to his speech writing team these days. What should he do to please you, dear voter? 

He innocently calls an Operating System a 'default program' just so that everyone understands [If India is a Computer, Congress is its default program]… gets bashed up!

Okay! Point noted you are a country of geniuses and the 'Nerd Quotient' in speeches got upgraded.. Then buys the licensed version of the Sheldon Cooper App [the escape velocity of Jupiter to Dalit audience]…. gets bashed up!

Then a little lesson about the marriage of 2 imperfect sciences Psychology and Economics [Poverty is just a state of mind]... gets him bashed up!
 
Some more famous pearls of wisdom:
·         I am not averse to politics, but that does not mean that I am going to join politics.
·         If I am incompetent, I am useless, the people of India will see that.

Oh so the speeches should now be tailored keeping the audience in mind? So much for just one vote each! Isn’t it easier to import refugees to vote in bulk – no speech required. 

Young India seeks youth leaders but more of Jyotiraditya Scindia, Sachin Pilot, or Omar Abdullah kinds, they have some work to speak for them. You need to show experience on your resume even for a job as a handy man but none required to be a national leader. No real academic cut-offs too [you may want to throw in some fake qualifications here and there, in a pseudo name of course] 

Isn’t it easier to criticize and bash then to actually work in public life but the attempt on hard research for looking for ‘public service’ came down http://youtu.be/WOVIyEYy8eY and

‘Aggressive media strategy’ shouldn’t get anyone votes, aggressive public service should. A famous family name shouldn’t make someone a Prime Ministerial Candidate, proving their capabilities should.

And finally this is why the opposition shouldn’t need an election campaign at all….
