Dear Jaykay,

I could not quite understand the connection - between your post and that of OP.

What is the connection between Indian Americans overwhelmingly supporting Obama and voting on emotive issues?

People, in general, are more rational than you would think!

Sir, Let be clarify. By all accounts, Obama has not delivered on his promises. He allowed the debt to blow up to 15 trillion, very expensive healthcare, employers are NOT hiring people because of the high healthcare costs they have to provide, more regulation on wall street restricting free flow of money etc.. Instead of lowering taxes, he is arguing for higher taxes on the rich. It is the rich who create business, middle class tax breaks are useless because they dont create businesses, at best spend money. so does not understand economics.

why is his healthcare expensive ?, because it covers pre-existing diseases & dependents. Automatically the insurance companies hiked the rates massively.

so anyways, in all respects Obama has failed to deliver on his promises. yes most Indian americans support him due to race, minority, pro-immigration etc.. - all reasons outside of merit & competence. !!

so where is the rational mind when they are deciding which presidential candidate to go for ?
