Pratibha who?

Never even heard of her till I just now read about Pratibha Patel being the likely next President of India.

Well..
Times of India writes:
I will not be a rubber stamp President: Pratibha Patil

while Hindustan Times writes:
I will not be a rubber stamp, says Pratibha Patil

Wonder if there is a third paper has her saying "I will not be a stamp" or even "I will not be a rubber President"? ;)

P.S. A few days back Amit Varma suggested we elect the mango as the next President, but looks like bloggers do not have enough clout in India yet for people to take them seriously :)

P.P.S. Amit withdrew his nomination for the mango and decided to elect the actress Mahima Chaudhary instead after reading an insightful quote by her:

Giving birth is like running a nation! And women who go through it, are truly angels.
And if you are wondering what the current President should do..at least per Amit...well, the BCCI is looking for a coach for the Indian cricket team, no? Read his post on why Abdul Kalam will make a great coach! :)
