Indian-American Republicans join forces to elect McCain
September 03, 2008
"We know that from his votes on the (US-India) civilian nuclear agreement, you could always count on (Republican Presidential nominee Senator) John McCain as a friend of India," said US Congressman Joe Wilson, South Carolina Republican and GOP co-chair of the Congressional Caucus on India and Indian-Americans.
"And, I don't want today to say anything negative, but look at the voting record of the other guy (Democratic Presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama) -- it's different."
Wilson delivered the keynote address at the only Indian American event held in conjunction with the Republican National Convention, hosted by the Indian American Republican Council, at the India House restaurant in downtown Minneapolis
