But the core around which the nation's values 50 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 2: are formed is the wasp. We've never had a president 51 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 2: who didn't have at least partial English ancestry. 52 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 3: Damn, we'll take y'all in, but y'all ain't gonna lead. 53 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 4: Okay, white Anglo Saxon Protestant, that's what they want, get honest, 54 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 4: a dieline.

I'll call it preference. Now. 72 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 4: The reason I have to give a bake donkey of 73 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 4: to day as well is because when he was on 74 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 4: the Breakfast Club earlier this year, I asked him does 75 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 4: he believed GOP would ever vote for an Indian like 76 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 4: himself or Nikki Haley? 77 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 3: We all know the answer that is, by the way, 78 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 3: and I believe he does too. He just has the 79 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 3: audacity of hope. 80 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 4: Let's listen to the question and answer, do you think 81 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,399 Speaker 4: a person of color could ever be the GOP nominee? 82 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 3: Yes? Absolutely, because I read an. 83 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 4: Article in the Nation that said you and Nikki Haley 84 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 4: can't escape GOP racism. And the article says you two 85 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 4: are boxed in by the bigotry that you deny exist. 86 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: What do you think of that? 87 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: So I'll tell you what probably the bigger obstacle was 88 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: for me. It wasn't skin color, and I still don't 89 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: think it's irresolvable obstacle, but it was religion. I'm Hindu, 90 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: and you know, I think the easy thing you're supposed 91 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: to do as a politician is, even if you're not 92 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: claimed to be Christian, check the bobs, maybe shorten your 93 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: name a little bit, make it easier to pronounce. Would 94 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: that in the short run help my electoral chances? A 95 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: lot of people were professionals that DIN certainly say it would. 96 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: But as I told you, my whole approach to politics 97 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: is I'm gonna tell you who I am and what 98 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: I stand for. And I am a religious. 99 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 3: Person, then religion is the reason the GOP. No, No, 100 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 3: not at all, not at all. 101 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,119 Speaker 1: But I'm saying that if I had to pick even 102 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: between the two factors, it's not even race. 103 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 3: No, FORVIC, it's all of it. Okay, is your skin 104 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 3: color is your religion? 105 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 4: She told you right there she couldn't vote for you 106 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 4: because you're Indian and she wanted a white Anglo Saxon 107 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 4: Anglo Saxon Protestant for president. Okay, these people are who 108 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 4: they are, and I'm not mad at them. I just 109 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 4: find it hilarious that people of color like veg Ramaswami 110 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 4: think these folks aren't who we know them to be. 111 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 3: VAC. Remember when that conservative website Babylon. 112 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 4: B was accused of racism because they said that Donald 113 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 4: Trump promised you a cabinet position running the White House 114 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 4: seven eleven convenience store. That is how they think of you. Okay, 115 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 4: every Indian stereotype you think of, from seven to eleven 116 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 4: to how you smell has probably been said about you 117 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 4: or to you. But you have to eat it because 118 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 4: you are a hell bent on being a part of 119 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 4: that good old boy club. Okay, I've heard but vig say, 120 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 4: don't call him Indian American because he's an American first. 121 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 3: Okay, not that them, vivic, not to them. 122 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 4: I understand you say, hey, I'm proud of my Indian heritage, 123 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 4: but you will still be quick to say I'm American first. 124 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 4: Are when asked by voters about your Hindu faith, you 125 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 4: will be quick to emphasize it. 126 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 3: It allows you to hold Judeo Christian values. 127 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,799 Speaker 4: See, when you ran for president, you had to appeal 128 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 4: to a Republican electorate that was heavily white and Christian. 129 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 3: I get it, you was trying to win votes. 130 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 4: But just because you're lying to them doesn't mean you 131 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 4: have to lie for them. They are who they are, 132 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 4: and they will never, at least not in our lifetime, 133 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 4: be able to see who you are because they will 134 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 4: be too focused. 135 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 3: On what you are. 136 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 4: Yes, you will always be boxed in by the bigotry 137 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 4: that you deny exist.
