It all depends on who the 'Powers That Be', mostly the whites, favour under current circumstances. Which is dictated by america's geo-political and strategic interests.

Right now, america sees china as it's adversary and wants to cultivate india as an ally in america's effort to contain and restrict China's rise as a global power.

The americans favouring indians is a natural consequence of this.

The Chinese or east asians only stand any chance of becoming governors and senators in constituencies where the asian electorate is in significant size. Such as Hawaii and perhaps Washington state.

A Chinese guy needs to be famous and inspirational and well liked by the Whites.

The only one meeting those criterias is Jeremy lin, and even if he wants to run for the presidency, it'll be many years away.

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Scorpio

Don't believe everything you see today and your memory could be playing tricks on you, too. You might remember things in a distorted or false way, through no fault of your own. You may also be reading too much into the situations that are going on around you, making it hard for you to know what's really happening. Try not to make any big decisions today because you simply aren't thinking straight.
