Here’s something that would have been unimaginable only a few years ago: Two out of three candidates currently vying for the GOP presidential nomination are Indian-Americans, a community that’s 1.3% of the U.S. population.
The odds that either former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley or businessman and antiwoke pundit Vivek Ramaswamy will win the nomination appear vanishingly small. Nonetheless their candidacies carry great symbolic value. They puncture the corrosive myth that America is a racist nation constantly threatened by the phantom of white supremacy. And they underscore why striving immigrant communities from all parts of the world need an alternative to the Democratic Party, whose obsession with identity politics undermines the principles of merit and fair play that make the U.S. great.
