Rare Example of an Ethical Politician
Hats off to Sonia Ghandi, India's PM heir apparent. The AP is reporting that Gandhi walked away from the job. Recent instability in Indian markets had been blamed on both Ghandi's socialist politics and on the fact that she is Italian born. Apparently aware of these issues, in a shocking development, Ms. Ghandi declined the Prime Minister position. Base10 does not agree with Ms. Ghandi's politics, but he does admire a political leader who would decline something in his or her own self-interest for the good of their country. Base10 wishes this spirit would infect American politics.
