Interesting how frequently visiting your relatives abroad is a threat in one instance, but frequently visiting relatives while illegally crossing the porous southern border makes you worthy of receiving special privileges ahead of others. It must be that being a citizen makes you more of a threat? Or something like that? Indian-Americans I know aren't that political, they are too busy pushing their children to success in America. Look at their domination of the spelling bees. Not the language of the country their relatives live in, but the language of their new home, and the language they need mastery of to get ahead in demanding fields like science, engineering, and medicine. They could be talking about Indian women at the socio-economic level that runs motels and convenience stores, but again, they seem to be too busy working and getting ahead to bother much with politics. It is scary for some people to accept the idea that people in fairly high levels of our government can be boneheads. |
