Better question: Why does ANYONE support Obama?

I am suspicious-- this woman is a stooge for Obama. But data is data. The only question is if the poll is rigged.
Be that as it may, let's remember that two state governors are Indian American--and they are both Republicans.

"Mr. Obamas life story seems to resonate better"
What would that story be ? Nobody knows who he is.

Very fishy story——all the (Asian) Indians I’ve ever encountered are business-minded and very Conservative, both culturally and economically.

No real Americans support Obama. Hyphenated Americans with tenuous loyalties, maybe. BUT these people have no particular attachment to our history, our culture, our way of life. Their view of America is limited to “where's mine?” Those who promise most will get their vote. And traditional western notions of morality are out with them: they are the ones who kill girl babies in sex selected abortions. Another reason to severely curtail immigration from non Western countries.

I am acquainted with Southern Ute and Navajo. I’d say it’s no more than 50% who like 0bama. The ones who dislike him know what evil socialism has brought upon their people.

Didn’t they give Obama an Indian name?
Big Teleprompter Turd, or something.
That makes him family.

Ever been to a REAL REZ?
It’s a Welfare paradise. And a picture-perfect example of the human destruction and corruption wrought by a lifetime of gub’ment welfare.
Most will vote however the Tribe Leaders tell them to.
American Reservation Indians have the highest rates of poverty, unemployment and disease of any ethnic group in America.
In the early 1980s, then-US Secretary of the Interior James Watt commented that one did not have to go to the USSR or Eastern Europe to discover the failures of socialism. Those failures, he said, were evident on the reservations, which his department oversaw. Not surprisingly, the comments drew partisan attacks, and the press dismissed Watt as making “bigoted” comments.
For uttering this inconvenient truth, he was almost fired.

My co-worker is an Indian naturalized citizen. He states he’s an ‘Independent’. The thing I see is that he thinks he’s smarter than the average voter. He is also basically clueless on American values and history.
These immigrants bring their cultures’ values with them with no regard for our own culture. They know nothing about America outside of the big cities to which they immigrate.
Immigrants are coming here for money, not to be Americans.

A lot of Indians don't assimilate. They form mafia-like groups based on the region of India they come from, and every region has its own language.
They are here for the free stuff.

You’re referring to American Indians, not Indian Americans.

Obama gave away 1 million American technology jobs to India. He brought them here and sent our job there. They laugh at us. The tax treaty involves a tax relief for companies that hire Indian techs, Americans need not apply.

You are right on with your statements. I would venture to say that my tribe (Yurok, N. Calif. ) are probably about 90% Democrat voters. We are a little over 5000 Indians and the largest tribe in California. We do not have a casino although we have been okay ed and one is being started as we speak. That will not make us rich because our tribe is pretty much isolated from large communities. Most tribes have been on the dole for so many years now that they actually depend on it as a way of life. A large portion of our people live off the Rez so as to find jobs. The ones that cling to the Rez are pretty much welfare Indians. They have no incentive to better their lives.
The Democrats, every election year, love the Indians and promise them the moon but after the election, they get nothing until the next election and then they get a new promise. This has been going on for a couple hundred years and the Tribes never catch on. Of course you know that the White People put them in this situation and keep them there. There is plenty of fault to go around. Socialism works on the Reservations because they have a never ending supply of tax payers money to keep the system going.
