What is the bias you are talking about? Can you please explain? Also check the title of the post. It is about America because the author and almost everybody in this community are impacted/ influenced by America. Why America? You read the above comments in chronological order, then you get answers to all questions raised in your conclusive comment.

In this post, it is america.. in earlier post it was the society, government, and many other targets.. While the intent of this post and other posts are noble, it itself becomes biased, when we narrow ourself in to one or two factors, instead of taking in to account the larger picture.. and particularly in this post, only the minority factor is considered, and all other factors is ignored. I just wanted to point this.. vamsi.. let me conclude this point.. my core point is that in the name of justice or nuetrality or liberal values, we are taking stands as per our convenience.. i am not saying that we should not question anything.. but, we often take a stand that we are always NOT biased and only others are biased and even accuse the target..

Which country allows the minority to become PM? Why is only america questioned? We are closing the loop and came back to the starting point of this post :) .. Also, your hatred for BJP doesnt make you recognize the fact that BJP is not controlled by any single family.. NOT even by its idelogical founder RSS.. it has considerable internal democracy.. Btw, i am a strong supporter of Modi,.. its not few people.. but a lot of people all across country support him .. vamsi,

That point itself is not big enough for opposing any party. Which Indian party has real internal democracy? You can list down the number of internal elections conducted where many second level leaders were given a chance to go to the top post? Dont say BJP's 3 year (or 2 years) rotation of it's President. All I hear is two names - ABV and LKA. These days some Gujaratis or few extreme right wingers naming NM. Can you please enlighten me? Senthil,
