I was speaking of the law. The EEOC has rules that deal with the situation involving someone in an inter-racial marriage. Let's say you marry a qualifying American Indian, then your boss starts harrassing you about pow-wows, and so on.

You qualify!

As far as people from the Indian subcontinent being Asian, that may be true but they are NOT Chinese, Japanese, Vietnanmese, Korean or Pacific Islander.

I suspect you're not terribly familiar with the "Indian people" who live in Pakistan and Afghanistan, or even with most Punjabis who live in India.

Besides, these guys don't call it "Asia", they call it "South Asia".

"Besides, these guys don't call it "Asia", they call it "South Asia"."

For purposes of the definition here in the U.S., Asian is Asian is Asian. When in Rome, do as the Romans.
