Aren't Indians (The Kind From India) considered to be Caucasian; which therefore means he would not be a "Minority" Governor???

I'm indian, my parents came from india, we are not even considered a minority, and we are in no ways white. Recently we were hauled into court for a stupid personal injury case (We really need tort reform), my mother was cross examined, and among the complaints the so called injured made, was that, as indians, we do not understand the plight of minorites in america today and because of our racism (she equated whites and asians in general in the same category) we refuse to settle because we can't sympathize. Right now, our insurance company is seeking to settle.

"and we are in no ways white."

Yes, the US Media doesn't associate Asians with the other "Endangered" Minority groups.
