I am American and my wife is Indian. I still do not pronounce my own wife\'s name exactly right. Relatives think it is cute how I say her name. I gave my children Indian names so they would have some solid connection with their mom\'s culture since they will be raised in America. I picked easy to pronounce names of course. My children will succeed or fail in the normal world based on who they are not by thier name or the color of thier skin. They may miss out on a bigoted employer or two but we all know that is the minority not the majority in the USA.

Jindal succeeded because he is who he said he is and has America\'s best interest at heart. Barack not so much.]]> Little India
