THERE IS A WOMAN OF INDIAN DESCENT ON BOTH SIDES - CHOOSE

Americans whose example of a strong president is a "WHITE" MALE have their hands full in November... Right or Left of the tickets does not represent that. They will have to choose - Kamala is of Indian heritage, JD Vance's wife is Indian. You would wonder why they did not choose Niki Haley - she is Indian too.

JD Vance, Donald J. Trump's Vice Presidential candidate, is married to a beautiful woman of South Asian (dark-skin South Indian) heritage, and she has experienced slue of racist attacks since JD was announced as the VP pick for Trump... Some right-wing MAGA people have attacked her in the typical way that these extremists do.... they want a caucasian dominated America. They want the country to go back to the Jim Crow era when women had no rights, where Americans of African descent were valued as 3/5 of a human. When women don't work, are subjects at home and have no voice.....

America of today has been sustained on the talents of immigrants like myself and Usha (JD's wife). Usha is a brilliant Yale-educated lawyer. Usha clerked for Chief Justice Roberts and Brett Kavanaugh of the SCOTUS. Her parents, proud Americans of Indian descent were super-educated professionals - Usha's dad was an aerospace engineer and university lecturer, and her mom was a professor of molecular biology.

Kamala's father was an immigrant from Jamaica and an emeritus professor of economics at Standford. He became a professor in less than 7 years of hire - he was the first American of African descent to be granted tenure at the prestigious Standard University. Kamala herself is a brilliant lawyer, who rose through the ranks in the public legal terrain of California to become the Attorney General before she was elected a Senator and then a VP to the POTUS. She has honed her skills in politics beyond her rival who has zero experience other than being a racist candidate and fake businessman in 2015 when he first ran.

There are some Americans who would NEVER vote for Kamala Harris, not because she is incompetent, but because she combines three traits they detest - she is a non-European America - she is half Indian, and she is half "black," (you will hear) her opponent say, "she is not smart over and over again at every opportunity) and the king of it, she is a WOMAN. They cannot stomach that a woman will be their leader... a woman...

A lot of these people are religious and they use the bible as an instruction book that women MUST take the back seat. They have forgotten all the women God appointed in the Old (not New) Testament to lead the Israelites before they asked for a king. Deborah was a judge and prophet; Ruth was a leader of the Jews during their captivity in Babylon...

So, come November, there has to be a choice between the two tickets that connotes what some traditionalists consider taboo.... There are Indians on both sides, and one is actually a woman, an Indian and African American.... who is beyond qualified to lead....

This is 2024, the rest of the world has moved on...

WHO SHOULD OR SHOULD NOT HAVE NUKES IN OUR WORLD TODAY?

I quote the father of nukes himself, Albert Einstein , “ Mankind invented the atomic bomb , but no mouse would ever construct a mousetrap ”… No nation should have nukes. If some would, then any nation who want should be able to… current situation creates a power imbalance because those who have it are seen as extremely powerful, and those who don’t are extremely weak nations… Here is a list of nations with nukes – declared and undeclared: U.S., China, Russia, Pakistan, India, France, UK, Israel, and North Korea . These countries host nukes from other countries – Germany , Italy , Türkiye , Belgium , Netherlands and Belarus … Many of USSR ’s former regions like Ukraine and Kazakhstan had nukes, and were tricked to give them up, a decision they all regret today. It is known that Japan , though do not have nukes, have capabilities to develop and launch them within a short time, even from the space. Why can’t other nations have nukes? Ownership of nukes is why Iran is holding the...

STATE OF THE NATION - Nigeria takes one step forward, and ten steps backward...

I just came back from Nigeria . I traversed the length and breadth of the nation a bit in my three-week stay. Something is different about the country compared to when I visited last year.... The people are more desperate... Hunger has increased astronomically.... The gap between the haves and have-nots has further widened... You feel impunity in the air... You see police collecting bribes openly like we have not seen since the Shagari era in 1983... There are more law enforcement agents on the roads now, yet the crime rate has not abated... You see VIO , Road Safety, State Law enforcers, the Police, everywhere mounting illegal roadblocks... I heard things from those close to the seat of power about those who hold the reins of power, and I weep for Nigeria - it is beyond disheartening... Projects are being abandoned because a significant portion has been given as bribes to government officials like governors and ministers, including major monarchs - they all collect money for projects...
