Does this mean that Ghandi will get knocked off hid pedestal, in a manner similar to Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, etc.?

I agree. Except for Jesus no one is perfect. Let's not tear down a great man because he had human weaknesses.

Depends on who you ask. I don't buy that Thomas Jefferson or George Washington have been knocked off their pedestals but if you want to believe that, you can find people, (racists) who will help you with that. The same can be said for anyone, Ghandi included.

Umm, I doubt it. He's a liberal icon, not a conservative one.
