As for the PPP, even Jagan was unwilling to amend the Constitution and reduce presidential powers. Disappointing, to say the least.

I don't think he was unwilling...he just didn't see a need for it given his honesty and caring. However, there is a reason why a person's historical significance is not written the day he/she dies. Jagan was very popular and well liked the day he died. However, it turns out that he was a very poor leader and is a reason why we are in the situation we are in today.

The lack of constitutional reform and putting square pegs in round holes during his term mark his mediocre presidency. He was a great, honest, knowledgeable man but a very poor leader.

Hey D2 - Please see if you could dig up the thread on Leadership also. Too bad we lost these discussions if we did.
