Sorry FN, in my opinion the former occupation and history would count a lot with my decision to vote.
I would never vote for a mango plucker for the simple reason that he would not be able to grasp the issues he would need to tackle and could therefore be easily swayed in an unwelcome direction. If Floriano has voted for him then it was magnanimous of Floriano. Anywhere else, voters would have had a choice of much better educated or social service backgrounded legislators whose sole aim was not to enrich themselves. That is the non-discriminatory point I believe, Floriano was making. Roland.

I think we need to judge holders of public office for their current actions, not on the bases of any other of our biases (past or present). FN -- FN Phone +91-832-2409490 Mobile +91-9822122436
