Think of it this way.. if you were the ruler of a country, and there is a strong
opposition to your rule, and you decide to leave the country, then who do you
hand your country? is it to those who oppose and who has some organization
or a bunch f street urchins.

m'baton delivered the to country to congress requires no great intelligence.
attributing that it was a great acievement is some how to belittle his role.

he did play a role... but after staying 4 years in uk i never got to know
what role he indeed played....
thanks...kt
