Given these basic resume requirement, here are Jaalmag.com’s recommendations for the post: 1. Shivraj Patil: The Union Home Minister would make a fine President. He would make an even finer former Home Minister. But there is plenty of opposition to his candidature especially from terrorist groups because he has made life so much easier for them. 2. Ghulam Nabi Azad: The same principles applies here as it does to Shivraj Patil. Getting him away from Jammu & Kashmir is probably the best thing that can happen to the State. At the same time, it’ll be a huge symbolic gain for India to have Kashmiri as its President. The ideal situation would be to have Patil and him as President and Vice-President but you’ll plenty of letters of protest from the Lashkar-e-Toiba if that happens. 3. Arjun Singh: Remember that old song? When Smokey sings/I hear violins Well, when Arjun Singh speaks, we hear violence. So, the Patil/Azad logic applies to him too, except you only have two positions to fill. Maybe they could create a special category – Chairman of the United Presidential Alliance, no? 4. Pervez Musharraf: He was born in India so he may just qualify. And he has a liking for the Presidential position as long as it does not involve a democratic election. This should work for him. 5. Sachin Tendulkar: For God’s Sake, he’s only become the Vice-Captain of the Indian Test team. He’s not even the Vice-Captain of the ODI team! Obviously, he could do with a promotion. And this would certainly help Indian cricket too since the selectors don’t have the balls to drop him, his elevation will stop him from choking whenever a crunch situation faces him.
6. VV Giri: For those who have no idea who that is, he’s a former President of India. So former in fact, he’s very dead. But then since being braindead doesn’t disqualify a person from assuming the post, the late unlamented Giri could certainly have another go at it. 7. George W Bush: He’s soon going to become the ex-President of the United States. Since he’s already a lame duck and is unable to get any legislation through, he may do well with a change of scene. Of course, what will also work for him is the fact that he’s probably more popular in India right now than he is in America. 8. Any Jew: India has already had Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs and Parsis among its Presidents and Prime Ministers. So, this is probably the one major religion left that is not represented in those echelons. However, if a Jewish President is upsetting for India’s oily “friends” from the Middle East, the country could even do with a President from another unrepresented religion such as Buddhism. 9. CEO of Jain Marketing: This company based is Khadiya, Gujarat, is among India’s foremost manufacturers and wholesalers of rubber stamps. Obviously, for any President, much experience in the field of rubber-stamping should be beneficial so this gentleman (or lady) should be a perfect. Fit. Of course, the other thing going for them is the fact that they actually make computerized rubber stamps! What more can you ask for? 10. APJ Abdul Kalam: He could have another term…but…nah, that makes too much sense.
