People have been waiting years for a new leader, a breath of fresh air in a dangerous region. Former prime minister Bhutto, who had returned from exile just months earlier, was the person who could steer Pakistan in the right direction. A country riddled with terrorism and political uncertainty, the Pakistani people must be patient and show through voting that they will not be coerced by violence.
