Lol, we’ll still support Trump. Some of the biggest opponents of h1b expansion are current visa holders and other Indian Americans.

BTW, some of Trump’s biggest support is in India where there are 1.17 billion who don’t have/care for h1b visas.

Most Hindus don’t like a strong nation based on Judeo Christian values - not sure what the anecdotal evidence the author has.

Yes, and please add to that one more thing...Hindu’s in America have the lowest violent crime rate. No bank robberies, no mass shootings, no gangs, no rapes, no serial murders.

And you will not find them clamoring for more welfare.

I know and have known a lot of indians. Hardest working people I have ever known. They deeply appreciate the opportunities here in the states and do not appreciate the government stealing from them. One of my close friends is from Bombay. She earned her medical degree and is now gainfully employed in Boston. She is working hard towards citizenship and is memorizing the lyrics to our national anthem. The women is a treasure, a Conservative and will be such a fine American.

Keep in mind Judeo-Christians produce 10,000 times more serial killers than Hindu’s in America, not to mention bank robbers and rapists. Show me how many such crimes you read about by Hindu’s in America.

I don’t know why they did (assuming they actually did), but it’s all good. Maybe they understand and respect somebody almost appealing to his own ethnic group, as such (sort of, kind of, a bit, in an indirect and barely acceptable way). Then again, Indians are weird, so who knows?

Buddhists and Hindus from India are very aware of the threat Islam poses to their very survival. And they have the history of 1000 years of persecution by Muslims, something that can’t be blamed on Western imperialism because Europe wasn’t a world power at the time.

Trump is pro-biz - that appeals to both the entrepreneurs and many professionals.

While many voted for Obama, his blatant pro-Islamic stances turned a lot of people this time around.

Additionally, the Hindus decided to create their own organizations this time instead of joining the so-called South Asian American orgs that are Paki front organizations supported by Indian origin leftists.

The Muslim conquests of India turned Buddhism into a world wide faith through the refugees and killed tens of millions of Buddhists and Hindus a thousand years ago, with vicious campaigns that flared up over the centuries.
There are still Muslim pogroms on Hindus and Buddhists once in a while in India, which is why Ghandi wanted Bangladesh and Pakistan separate, Muslim nations and everyone who didn’t fit in to migrate so that you had segregation - Muslims from all their victims.
And given Pakistan’s support of the Taliban and regular murders of atheists and Christians, it seems like a logical choice.

Why don’t we just call all of them Americans and leave out the labels?

At President Trump (nice sounding name) last Tampa Rally last week, lots of Hindus were there. ConservaTeen was talking to an Indian in traditional dress. Hindus are going to be another opportunity for CONSERVATIVES.

Amen. My ancestory is from India, but I’m American. Hate hyphenated categories, and I’m far right wing, too.

We have an Indian guy who works on our team asking why we don’t use the fingernail inking for voting here like they do in India.
I said, “The democrats couldn’t commit vote fraud if we did.”

Oh, I also loaned him my copy of Dinesh D’Souza’s latest movie.
Heh-heh!
