Assalamualaikum,

I do not have any issues or something. What my point is that, a better party then PPP is needed, and solve the crisis in Pakistan, such as load shedding, drone strikes e.t.c

I do not have much knowledge in political field. But without having much of political knowledge, a person like me has to admit that atleast a better party should come and do something about it.

Just one more question, what do people think about Nawaz Sharif's party?

without political knowledge and background of pakistani politics how can you advocate one party over another?
do you know that maybe some decades back PPP was the PTI of today?

look: stopping drone strikes is a straw man used by various parties to reconcile with the tide of opinion in pakistan.
however as i said pakistan has gone too far in its support of US and betrayal of mujahideen. you just cannot stop drone strikes and expect AQ and US to play in some other country. i repeat: we are involved too deep. whichever party gives this slogan is either very deluded or very clever.

PML-N is very strong in punjab esp lahore. yet the doctor's strike hit them hard. one will have to see whether PTI has penetrated the middle and lower class as well or the tsunami lovers are all upper middle and elite class liberals. then again rallies are nothing. dont be charmed with them. thousands come to JI rallies - but JI hardly ever wins.
then also remember the basic intrinsic flaws in democracy itself and the election procedure (e.g how many people come to vote?). that further reduces the ability of a democratic party to actually implement what they promised. there is plenty of that on this forum that should tell you why western democracy is a flawed theory. there is a thread about it in in-depth fiqh section.
