I for one do not see BO as a pro-Hindu person. He is a pro-Jesus person who will continue whatever US does now. He is black only when it helps him, maybe he will even do something for black people, but he is absolutely naive about Hindus. His conditioning is that they need to be "prayed for and saved", as they say. Extreme condescencion. HC is better. At least she will not interfere with India. BO will expand this "Dalit" thing, since that is the first thing a naive american will do if he asks "scholars" about India. A true understanding of INdia is well beyond any american, and the best we can hope for is for someone with enough India-experience (and less church experience) to stay neutral. IMO.
