The extensive coverage of Ronald Reagan's last moments, got me thinking about indian leaders who commanded such universal respect and following .
Unfortunately after MK Gandhi and maybe Indira Gandhi to certain extent ( that too largely because of her Gandhi name) no one had the charisma to rise up in the world stage and become a universally admired world leader.
The legacy of MKG is hard to beat and he will remain as an all time great world leader but India needs some charimatic leaders on the world stage, someone whom we all can be proud of (irrespective of political affiliations).
Atal Bihari was slowly moving into that stature but he blundered with early elections and getting himself out of office.
Who do you all see as our next shining star ?

Mahatma Gandhi is of course in a different level altogether and even trying to compare these Western leaders is useless.

As for the legacy of Reagan , despite his lack lustre performance in US economics, his brand of economic policies (reagan-omics) has become the mainstay of the Republican party in US .
Quote:More hype, myths and misinformation from the media in the event of his death.
His single biggest achievement on the world stage was the end of Cold war ...it was mostly his initiative ...remember his speech at he fall of berlin wall when he said " Mr gorbachev tore down this wall" ...that was his biggest contribution to the world and demonstration of his true leadership.
Quote:I don't think I want people like him ruling my beloved motherland.
We dont see anyone in india who could be a unifier like Reagan. Our leaders are too busy changing stands and agendas for short political gains.
