I totally agree with you. When such people have taken the decision to get in, the educated class MUST support them. We can't be sitting in our living rooms and complaining. If at all, we ever had a thoguht that educated people must be in politics, then this is the opportunity. I encourage you to spread this word, as much as you can in your area. Thanks for posting this...
