Zardari President

By Rana • Sep 1st, 2008 • Category: Politics

I joined Pakistani Spectator mainly to share my views on Zardari becoming the president of Pakistan.

What an opportunity for Nawaz Sharif to genuinely become a national leader and cement his standing in the Pakistan, not just for political gain but for the national gain.
