Certainly proves my previous point in a country that is pretty backwards in terms of intelligence in which a nuclear weapons country, desperate for any style of leadership to maintain a family dynasty chooses what is basically a child, a teenager of assassinated Political Leader Ms. Bhutto, his Mother who unwittingly has passed an even bigger BULLSEYE onto to her son for opponents to target.  As I reiterated before, World powers, and neighbouring countries must be desperately making a diaper change at this moment as the Taliban must be salvitating at the Bit in all this Chaos ripe for the taking, knowing full well when a Nuclear power chooses an inexperienced Child to lead their Party, and in the event of a Political win, will certainly be taking their country into Hades.  People may state my Opinion is harsh, but guaranteed if Pakistan was our Neighbour, Canadians and American would be making a run for the nearest Pampers Outlet Store.

NAUDERO, Pakistan — Party officials say Benazir Bhutto’s 19-year-old son has been chosen to succeed her as chairman of the Pakistan People’s Party.

Her husband will serve as co-chairman, extending Pakistan’s most famous political dynasty to a third generation.

The decision was made at a closed-door meeting of the Pakistan People’s Party central executive committee, three days after the two-time prime minister was assassinated in a suicide attack.

It catapults Bilawal Zardari, an Oxford University student with no experience in politics, to the center of Pakistan’s tumultuous public life.

Bhutto’s husband Asif Ali Zardari, 51, is key powerbroker in the party who served as environment minister in her second government.

It's amazing that not all that long ago most nations had a kid at the helm occassionally. It's still too early to tell whether or not he's ever going to get any power in Pakistan. But if he does win a major election in Pakistan then Barry Artiste is right; it would be Pampers Time!

Thanks for the Flag Big T, what makes you think India isn't shopping at Walgreens as we speak? I hear Walgreens is having a 2 for 1 Pampers New Years sale "one size fits all'.  Unfortunately if the young boy after 4 or so years till he is allowed a seat and soon after if ever he makes it to power, holding on to it will most likely be fatal to him. Best he get "Hell outta Dodge", tell Good Ole Dad Later..... "Much" and live a peaceful life in a Western Country far removed from Pakistan Politics and the middle East for that matter.
