>>>Modi is smooth. Good scoop for Zakaria, but he threw a quite a few soft balls at him. Maybe he is becoming a fan:)

Modi is a moron who always talks about past and whines about past glory. I sincerely believe that a person with that mindset is ill suited lead a country, will not be able to take it forward

the man who engineered one of the great political wins in indian political history and actually has a vision & is largely respected by the civilized world as a leader of consequence is a moron but a wapo x-posting kebab munching partisanullah from northern virginia is a genius. we're on the same page

Modi was as confident as ever while responding in Hindi, not English. If any Indian feels uneasy about it, it's their problem.

You don't make much sense, as usual. Speaking in Hindi doesn't enhance his indianness nor pride to a Telugu person who doesn't understand any Hindi. You're replacing Hindi with English shows your false sense of pride nothing else

Nee bondha! [/] Assumptions, assumptions and assumptions, as usual, with your colored glasses on. Did I say anywhere that knowing hindi is great and enhances one's indianness or pride? Modi spoke in a language that he's comfortable with and felt perfectly fine doing so. There's nothing to be ashamed about not knowing english and nothing to feel great about not knowing hindi well either and vice versa. It all depends on where you live and many other things.

If that's your argument I don't have much to say. Btw, none of my points were assumptions you said it all. You're an Hindi slave you've proved that many times
