Obama sucks. Vote Ron Paul.

Ron Paul is a peaceful man, but I doubt he will win. There was some talk about the Maine caucus being rigged. U.S. will do whatever it takes for him to be not the Republican nominee. He wants U.S. out of the Muslim world and end all wars which gives nightmares to Zionists controlling Washington D.C.

yes it might be longest running but still it has people who do not get old
if you really want to compare then compare current fictional programs..

Gandhi is #1 in USA in fame, but he never got US citizenship.

That would make Apu #1.

My odds are better in nailing the Powerball jackpot than Ron Paul becoming the President. If information flow was symmetrical he would be the President.

Who is the most famous Chinese American?

I reckon Dr Sanjay Gupta is the most famous Indian American.

I was talking about Indian citizens in America mate.

Indian American born or who grew up in the USA tend to be very liberal, they usually vote Democrats. I know a few through some family members ( one of them is really hot ). They are very different from the batch here in PDF.

Thats the crappy part with US/UK politics. Only two real parties to vote for, and if both put up bad contenders then whats the point in voting?

You need to look up something called 'first past the post' electoral system. For example...

First-past-the-post voting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

First-past-the-post (abbreviated FPTP or FPP) voting refers to an election won by the candidate(s) with the most votes. The winning candidate does not necessarily receive an absolute majority of all votes cast.

The idea will require several days of reading and studying, if not at least an entire semester. But suffice to say that under FPTP, there is a natural tendency to evolve to a two-party political contestant system. There is nothing 'shady' about it. There is nothing to prevent the creation and rise of a third party but that once this third party gained the support of enough people from the other two, the system will have the loss of one and return to a two-party political contestant system again. The issue is whether the new candidate party is convincing enough to the people.

All political systems are 'crappy' in some ways. The Swiss Presidency is not popularly elected. Did you know that? It is said that if the Swiss President ride the subway in the morning, most likely the people sitting/standing next to him/her would not recognize their own leader.

May be Indian mind is a little towards socialism and so they don't like Ron Paul. Mitt Romney is at least moderate. In that sense he is the most socialist Republican primary candidate. It is easy to discard the other candidates.
