Democratic National Convention
Asian American Power Hour, Monday, August 25th

In a small cramped space at the Marriott City Center 2 hours before the start of general session Asian American leaders met to inspire us to become more involved in our communities. Many of those in attendance believed that the highlight of this event was a young, dynamic, dedicated, hard working Indo-American, by the name of Ashwin Madia, who is running to represent the third US congressional district from the State of Minnesota. If you listen to this guy, you will see his promise as a young leader. While some South Asians Americans, especially those who are leaning towards the Republican party, are captivated by Governor Bobby Jindal, no matter how wrong he is on the issues - they have yet to meet Ashwin. This guy is a force to be reckoned with. He is thoughtful, deliberate, compassionate, highly educated, and inspirational.
