Dr. Taj has raised quite a bit of money, so if Bentivolio beats McCotter he’d better do some fundraising if he expects to win.

I can think of two high profile Americans of Indian ancestry off the top of my head. One is known by his nickname. Bobby. The other goes by Nikki and has an English sounding last name due to marriage. They are also both Christian.

This isn't the most PC thing to say, but I'm not sure some guy named Syed (sounds Islamic), Dr or not, will get past a guy named Bill Roberts in the primary. There's a lot of Indians in Canton and Troy, but there's also a lot of union whites there and throughout the district, especially up in Waterford and in eastern Livonia. I can easily see some white or black union guy showing up at the polls, and going "I ain't votin' fer no Muslim" and voting for this Bill Roberts guy instead.
