Get rid of your annoying and stupid ignorance. Do you even know what the
word "politician" stands for? No wonder, you all have been reciting what was
taught in the classes and mentioned in stupid text books.

Gandhi was a politician. He was also responsible for some of the dirty politics
in Congress party, easily comparable to the deeds of modern ******* politicians.
It's no big secret that he favored Nehru over Bose, and even forced Bose to
resign, who was President of the Congress at the time. He coerced other party
members to resign in favor of Nehru & himself, and against Bose so he could be
held responsible for the mass resignations.

Gandhi also provided "moral support" to the British in WWII, even against the
will of most of the Congress party members. He even urged Indian youth to
join British forces to fight for the "Queen".

His methods of truth and non-violence weren't unknown to the mankind, as
Buddha and Christ practised the same well ahead before him. He was merely
following the teachings and preachings of other leaders. But I do respect him
for that. I also like the fact that he remained vegetarian for the rest of his life.

I also accuse him of being overly selfish, and not taking enough care of his wife
and children. He also admired the British superiority over others. Remember,
alternate history is usually ignored by the coming generations, and what remains
is a vague representation of the personna - good or evil.

Overall, I like Gandhi as a person. He achieved some great things, but he had
his share of failings and bad deeds, like any other common man. As a great
leader of our Nation or Rashtrapita, I think he falls a little short of it.
