These Asian people sure are all too happy to throw their money into the Clinton dough trough aren't they? It sure makes you wonder if they all figure, "look what it got the Chinese in the 90's. We sure need some of that for our countrymen back home".
But when they found out the Clinton's weren't showing up for whatever the reason they really got mad. After all, there aren't too many communities the Clinton's won't take money from for some political favors, so their feelings are really hurt because they can't but influence in Washington as easy as the other ethnic groups apparently.
So of coarse like good trained victims they go on to blame their turbans for the snub:
"We're a minority group. We wear turbans. … They don't want to see Hillary Clinton with people wearing turbans and stuff," he said.I'm sure it's nothing a few Clinton promises for some Sikh friendly bills and legislation here and there won't smooth over later down the road, so they shouldn't get their turbans all in a bunch over this, as Hillary will take their cash later on when the press isn't watching so closely I'm sure
Sikhs Seethe Over a Snub by Clintons -
November 19, 2007 - The New York Sun: "BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — The Clinton campaign's abrupt cancellation of scheduled appearances here is leaving members of the Sikh community dismayed and demanding an explanation. Traditional food, elaborate costumes, and ritual sword fighting were on display as thousands of Sikhs celebrated a religious festival here yesterday, but the expected guest of honor, Senator Clinton, was a no-show. Mrs. Clinton also scuttled a fund-raising breakfast at a nearby fairgrounds where Sikh leaders had hoped to raise $1 million for her presidential campaign.
Some organizers cited 'security reasons' for the candidate's sudden withdrawal. An advertisement in a Sikh newspaper said the fund-raiser, which was also to have featured President Clinton as a guest, had been postponed 'due to the advice of the Secret Service.' Others involved said some of those planning the fund-raiser failed either the campaign's vetting process or a Secret Service review." continued
