I'm a liberal, but the fact that you refuse to call them by their [b]preferred [/b]names is really a backhanded form of racism.

Has it occurred to you that Haley PREFERS to be called Nikki?

I am married and have two kids--guess what? All of us go by nicknames--not their legal names. And, DD even changed her nickname when in middle school. She goes by that with all her friends.

Both Nimrata and Piyush converted to Christianity before officially entering politics.

I’m Indian, not racist towards my own people and just noting that for Indians to win in conservative states, they need to hide their Indian heritage to a certain degree.

This is true for any nonwhite person. Conservatives don't consider you a "real" American if you have an ethnic sounding first name. Look at every black Republican. They all have "white" sounding names.

Tim Scott has hidden his race?

whut?

Neither name sounds ethnic to me.

Hell no, Fox would run a story on how they are taking white kids from broken homes and turning sending them off to be converted and turned into the next generation of American jihadis.

Reminds me of the time that a Muslim school tried to apply for a private school voucher and suddenly all the voucher advocates did a 180 about voucher programs

At the same time, besides the courts gutting the Indian Child Welfare Act, conservatives have long opposed policies that create racial preferences in adoption to minimize children of color being adopted by white people.

So race/ethnicity have a completely different status re: policy than religion it seems.

Disgusting
