This is AP making sure the Bubbas know that Nikki isn't white.
People are guided by their religious beliefs. There may come a time when religious affiliation becomes more crucial than party affiliation.
And did they find Offi? Inquiring minds want to know.
Fo shindu my hindu.
I don’t care what color any of them are as long a they aren’t “red”
As far as I know, many Indians ARE white.
What an odd article. Perhaps it’s because I had childhood friends from India, but the whole issue seems...vapid.
India struggles with poverty because of the fatalism inherent in Hinduism and yet they are a Democracy and some of the brightest people in the world are Indian.
India learned from Britain and adopted Western ideas that have made them successful.
I have no problem whatsoever with Indian Americans in office.
I have never heard an Indian American whine or demand special treatment.
He called criticism of Haley’s name and religion unfounded. “Nikki Haley and (Republican Louisiana Gov.) Bobby Jindal are on the wrong side, but they worked their butts off, they had the bonafides to get the votes, and I think it had so much more to do with their work ethic than the fact that they may have changed their names and adopted a different religion.”
ROFL. . . they have the “Work Ethic” but somehow they’re “on the wrong side”
How silly of me to forget that the Democrats are the productive class of our Nation.
At least most Indians know about the true face of Islam... and tend to be in support of the free market (and small government).
Which is more than I can say for our Huckabee types.
Indians aren’t white? did the author ever hear of the term Indo-aryan
Really! It was rather blatant.
Too bad that AP (and the Bubbas) don't know that Indians are caucasians.
"I will stand with them [muslims] should the political winds shift in an ugly direction." Barak Hussein Obama, Audacity of Hope, page 261
That theory doesn’t hold water in the case of Catholics — 52% of them voted for a Muslim.
That's nonsense. Many Christians and Muslims have their own fatalism / doomsday-ism, interpreting all and sundry, even the oil spill, as the end of the world.
You'll find at least 10 such threads, daily, over here itself.

I think it’s pathetic that the good old boy Republicans are acting like Democrats smearing Nikki Haley and threatening to support her Democrat opponent.
The best thing that could happen is for more ordinary conservatives to start attending party meetings and pushing the old guard out. The dirt in politics starts at the grassroots and taints the whole process.
