The Woman Who Would Be President
Dr. Massouda Jalal's quest to be Afghanistan's president sounds even more improbable than Sean Connery's in The Man Who Would Be King (a great movie). But her ideas are admirable, and she is an actual Afghani, not one remodeled in America. Imagine that: an Afghani who wants democracy and peace and who doesn't need the US to guide her thinking along these lines; they are her own ideas. Sigh, her chances are clearly nil...but it's a daring vision.
