in my view president should be non political member 

Pranab Mukherjee will not be made president as he is the crisis man of UPA,apart from finance ministry portfolio he has lots of other things on his plate. Sangma does not have support of other parties except for the regional parties. One more  name doing the rounds is Gopalkrishna Gandhi,the original gandhi kin,who is an ex IAS official and was governor of bengal.  Of all of them,most deserving is Mr Gandhi,as per my view.

As per my view APJ Abdul kalam is the best suited for the job. 

 Dr APJ ABDUL KALAM AS A BEST PREZ

APJ Abdul Kalam is a renowned scientist, administrator and a true visionary. He is the best choice for president. He has occupied the post earlier as well and will be remembered as a charismatic figure in the hall of fame of Indian politics. He was also the first scientist to occupy the Rashtrapati Bhavan. During his term, he was known as the people’s president. He is also a role model for the youth. His nonpolitical background was an asset and he contributed to fields such as nuclear science and education. He interacts with the youth regularly in schools and colleges. He has also spoken at length about developing India as a knowledge superpower, and has a secular and multi-cultural outlook. If Dr Kalam is re-elected, the youth will be proud and happy with the choice.
