The only Indian President who has served two terms in office -- actually more than two terms; 12 years -- was Dr Rajendra Prasad, India's first President, from January 30, 1950 to May 13, 1962.

If Kalam is elected to a second term he will make history.

A people's President, Dr Kalam's popularity -- evident from the fact that he was nominated by both the ruling National Democratic Alliance and the then Opposition Congress party in 2002 -- among Indians remains undiminished.

While the President's role is apolitical -- as it should be, in a constitutional monarchy -- he is nevertheless part of the political structure. Thus, his election and re-election are political decisions.

Despite his popularity, and the fact that he transformed the Presidency, made it more open to the common man, Kalam's renomination will be based on political considerations.

Even these, at times, bend to public pressure.

Here's where you come in. If you think President Kalam should be given another tenure in Rashtrapati Bhavan, tell us why you think he deserves it.

And make your voice heard in the corridors of power!
