While visiting India, George Bush is invited to tea with Abdul Kalam.
He asks Abdul Kalam what his leadership philosophy is. He says that, it is to surround him self with intelligent people.
Bush asks how he knows if they're intelligent.
"I do so by asking them the right questions," says Kalam. "Allow me to demonstrate."
Bush watches as Kalam phones Manmohan Singh and says, "Mr. PrimeMinister, please answer this question: your mother has a child, andyour father has a child, and this child is not your brother or sister.Who is it?"
Manmohan immediately responds, "It's me, Sir!"
"Correct. Thank you and good-bye" says Kalam. He hangs up and says,"
Did you get that, Mr. Bush?" Bush nods: "Yes Mr. President. Thanks alot. I'll definitely be using that!" Bush, upon returning to Washingtondecides he'd better put Condoleezza Rice to the test.
Bush summons her to the White House and says, "Condoleezza, I wonder if you can answer a question for me."
"Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?"
Bush poses the question: "Uhh, your mother has a child and your fatherhas a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who isit?"
Rice was puzzled and finally asks, "Can I think about it and get back to you?" Bush agrees, and Rice leaves.
Rice immediately calls a meeting of senior senators, and they puzzleover the question for several hours, but nobody can come up with ananswer. Finally, in desperation, Rice calls Colin Powell and explainsthe problem.
"Mr. Powell, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, andthis child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"
Powell answers immediately, "It's me, of course."
Much relieved Rice rushes back to the White House, finds George Bush,and exclaims, "I know the answer, sir! I know who it is! It's our ColinPowell!"
And Bush replies in disgust, "Wrong, it's Manmohan Singh!"
