Sorry bout that,

1. But the son of Benazir Bhutto, has stepped forward to take his Mothers place.
2. He says he stands for *DEMOCRACY*.
3. He's a brave lad, not yet 20 years of age.
4. Will he survive this?
5. Is he walking into a suicide vest wearer?
6. Will Musharraf protect him?
7. For the good of *THE NATION*?
8. All this and a *Bag~O~Chips* right here on DP.
9. Read it thusly:http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1699006,00.html

"
A senior official of Benazir Bhutto's Pakistan People's Party (PPP) told TIME late Saturday that the slain former prime minister's 19-year-old son, Bilawal, will likely be named as her political heir and the new party leader on Sunday. PPP members are due to meet to discuss the party's future and to give Bilawal, a student at Oxford, a chance to read his mother's last will and testament.


A Pakistani television news channel also carried reports that Bilawal will be made the new leader, which the channel said accorded with Benazir Bhutto's wishes. If confirmed, the teenager will become the third leader of the 40-year-old center-left party, one of Pakistan's most powerful. Bilawal will follow his grandfather, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, who founded the PPP in 1967, led Pakistan as Prime Minister for four years in the mid 1970s and was hanged in 1979 by a military government, and Benazir, who took over from her father and was killed in a shooting and suicide bomb attack two days ago.

The quick anointment of a Bhutto to head the PPP will help rally party members devastated by the assassination of their tough but beloved leader. The party hopes to ride a wave of sympathy in parliamentary elections that are set for Jan. 8 but may yet be postponed in the face of widespread violence around the country. Rival opposition parties have called for a boycott of the polls but PPP officials say their party intends to participate."

Sorry bout that,

1. But he has no intention of being in power.
2. The son of Bhutto is going back to Oxford.
3. He doesn't have the dedication to die for his Country.
4. Maybe after things settle down in about 100 years.
5. Read it thusly:http://apnews.myway.com/article/20071230/D8TS02L80.html

"

God willing, when it is the Peoples Party's reign, when the Peoples Party government is formed, then we would have taken revenge for Bibi's blood and that blood would not have gone waste," Zardari said, referring to his late wife by her nickname.
