Qualities you look for in a journalist

Did I see these qualities in any of the men who have been President? Yes, in President Narayanan. Perhaps in Rajaji too, though I don't know enough about him. That's it. None of the others? No. Not even President Kalam? No.

Update/Correction: Made this post, then stepped out for the evening, sometime during which I realized what a silly mistake I had made, got back and the first thing I'm doing is correcting it.

Rajaji was never President, he was Governor-General immediately after Independence. While he was a man of great stature, the President I meant above was Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, in office 1962 to 1967. [link]
