You think this is the most pivotal political issue facing Indian Americans?




Did Niki or Vivek take a position on this pivotal issue in their campaigns? Has Vance addressed it since his wife is Indian-American? Heck, what's Trump's position on it?


Yes, did you Cons ask Nikki Haley and Vivek (or heck, even Bobby Jindal) to address this? Should Vance address this since he's married to an Indian American and his kids are biracial? Or do you only try to make this an issue for Harris?


The MAGAs seem to think that black Americans will reject Harris because she's biracial so they want to highlight her Indian ancestry. Very weird and displays how little they understand about black Americans.


Kamala and Barack can pass as siblings to fully Af American Cory Booker or Hakeem Jeffries. I thought conservatives liked The Cosby Show. They don’t know admixture and looks/skin tone can vary widely among black families. They never heard about the infamous “my great grandfather is white joke”. Why was the great grandfather white? Gee I wonder

That’s it.

She’s Indian-American isn’t she? She looks more Indian than Black to me, too. Look at her hair.

If her trolls are going to keep screaming anti-White screeds while she makes her entire candidacy about her descriptors, she might want to develop a thicker skin. Unless she’s ashamed of her Indian heritage that is.


Just WOW. Speechless.

She was raised by her Brahmin mother, raised Hindu, speaks Hindi — and her father also has Indian ancestry. She wasn’t even raised in the United States from the time she was 12. She can identify however she wants, but she is not a product of the African-American experience, and certainly not ADOS.

She is not even part of the American immigrant experience, in that neither of her Ph.D. parents became U.S. citizens.

As a Brahmin, the dirty little secret is that she is against anti-caste legislation in the United States. Someone should ask her about that, if she ever does give an unscripted interview.


Never thought I'd see the day when white Republicans' main argument against a candidate is that she isn't black enough.

They did this to Obama, too, though. It’s wedge politics where they try to divide the people they know are never going to vote for them. Every once in a while there are trolls here still saying “how come Obama is the first black president when he’s half white?” or “How come we never hear about Obama’s white heritage?” That’s definitely been out there.

Do you apologists really think it’s OK that Kamala is against anti-caste legislation in the United States?


That's your line of attack now? You've exhausted everything else. It's pretty sad really. You've got an old, weird and confused candidate that doesn't understand that someone can be bi-racial.

So you are against anti-caste legislation? And pro-Brahmin? And anti-Kamala ever giving an unscripted interview?


I don't even know what anti-caste legislation is. Why should I care?

Why should you vote?


Anti-caste legislation is the only reason a person would vote? Weird.

Perchance people like you, who are too lazy to understand the Indian-American experience in the United States by googling “caste discrimination” — and do not care about it — should not vote.


Are you Indian-American? I am. This is the first I heard that “caste discrimination” is supposed to be part of my Indian-American experience. Please "Americansplain" me "caste discrimination” please.


+1 Another Indian-American here that would love to hear someone explain how "caste discrimination" is a part of my experience in this country. "Americansplain" is a perfect way of putting it.


Another married to another Indian-American with a majority of our Indian-American friends. None of us are discussing this issue. And sounds like one person parroting the same argument without any evidence over and over.


The person who keeps posting about Harris voting against the anti-caste legislation is obviously a white conservative who is trying to find a wedge issue to separate her from her black and Asian supporters. This person does not realize that ethnic communities would rather have a representative of their community even if they don't agree on all topics, than to have yet another white male politician who does not understand or know anything about their demographic. Many of us would rather have someone who looks like us and comes from a similar background, than to nitpick individual policies as wedge issues.

Hence why this has to be some white conservative who doesn't understand minority communities and demographics at all.


Your logic is flawed. Using your logic then white people shouldn’t vote for Harris because “many of us would rather have someone who looks like us and comes from a similar background”. That is obviously wrong and misguided. If we want to build a diverse community then we can’t all just vote for people that “look like us”. I really can’t believe that I would have to explain something so obvious.

Who made them the judge and jury on blackness? Nobody. They are setting blacks back. If we did things their way we wouldn't ever have a black woman as President until their backward old asses die off.

Trump didn't have any master plan as to who this was messaged for. He was simply expressing his own racist tendencies.

Never came up with them. Probably because the base doesn't care to wade into "Hindu stuff"


It's worse than that. There were racist attacks on Usha the moment they debuted as a couple and I'm not kidding that folks were saying, "Oh wait, he's married to a brown?" Like really, in 2024? Of course they don't. They are barely tolerated on the right and think that somehow the racists are going to let them in the club.


Actually, it was liberals attacking their marriage because they did not believe that their marriage was real because he married “to a brown”.


??? An outright lie worthy of Trump. There was no question about his marriage. There was questions why he didn't have any relationship pictures before his marriage. The RW has been the one criticizing him for his current marriage.

Nope.


It was a bunch of MAGAs, not liberals. But anytime it's inconvenient for you that your own folks are racist, you just project. Not liberals? Okay then, antifa, leftists, illegals? It's weird you can't even acknowledge that your party is full of racists. It's even weirder to think there are a bunch of Indian Americans who actually think the MAGAs accept them.
