The Daily Show’s Aasif Mandvi Charts Indian Americans Takeover of the U.S.

Posted on September 27, 2013 by John

The Daily Show’s Aasif Mandvi explains how Indian Americans are getting the last laugh in America despite such incidents as racists tweets after the crowing of an Indian American for  Miss America.

The one thing I was surprised was that Mandvi didn’t even bring up elected Indian Americans such as Bobby Jindal and Nikki Haley. I’m just hoping one day, The Daily Show has an “Asian” correspondent one day, as it has black and Latino correspondent. (Olivia Munn’s brief tenure on The Daily Show doesn’t count for me.)

Thanks for rating this! Now tell the world how you feel - .
(Nah, it's cool; just take me back.)
