A New Donald? "I'm Lovin' It"!

-
We all love the instantly familiar double golden arches sign and the grammatically incorrect slogan that United States of America exported to the whole world. Now people are waiting with baited breath and excitement at the unveiling of another American product that the world will have to embrace soon.

From all indications it appears to be extremely spicy and still more and more Americans are lovin' it!


Just as McDonald's did it, this one is shaping up as an equally unstoppable global force. You would have guessed what I am alluding to - another type of Donald that has now 'trump'ed all the competitors, discomfiting the pundits, trancending the conventional wisdom, and "portraying warmth and a real slice of everyday life" to all the aficionados.


However, for many Americans, this turmoil and social churning unleashed by the Republican Presidential candidate are not just concerning but even scary and downright frightening in that there is a sizable majority of the public backing a new standard of political discourse that is not entirely unfamiliar to the Indian public. 

While the current US President is the epitome of 'Political Correctness' this Presidential candidate is just the opposite and that's what seems to be appealing to the common man!

Pushing Pakistan deeper into poverty through a war could inadvertently lead to global sympathy for them. Other countries and international ...

Sir Chettur Sankaran Nair: A Life of Principle and Purpose

Surprisingly, it required someone like Prime Minister Narendra Modi, sitting 2,500 km away in Delhi, to illuminate the significant contributions of Kerala's illustrious son, Sir Chettur Sankaran Nair (1857-1934), for Keralites and Indian historians. Sir Chettur Sankaran Nair This luminary had risen to prominent judicial roles in the British administration, received a knighthood  under British rule, yet ultimately relinquished all these accolades to fight against injustice within the same British legal framework , a system that ironically helped pave the path to India's eventual independence . Following PM Modi's directive, Union Minister Suresh Gopi visited the ancestral home of freedom fighter and former Congress president's family in Ottapalam and their residence in Chandranagar, Palakkad, on Sunday.
