Re: Nation’s spokesman or devil’s advocate?
The analogy is the same especially since PTI and fans like to promote imran’s kaptaan status. The only other worthwhile thing that he has done is shaukat khanum, but then should edhi, ansar burni and tons of other singers / actors like shehzad roy be in politics as well?
Imran can have good ideas (many people do..) but he doesn’t have that quick thinking wit that is needed in a pakistani leader. He comes off as a pahari aadmi which is exactly what is not needed in the complex situation Pakistan is facing right now. Musharraf has had his flaws but he had the foresight (gave media freedom in Pakistan and LG was a good step). Pakistan needs someone like Deng in China not Mao who was high on emotional rhetoric which killed millions on the Great Leap Forward.
