misu,

Indian politicians couldn't make their point in India . this is the reason they visit to usa to make their point.

[kuba4711]

yes, sounds all interesting about he is talking, but you easily lose concentration when he reads out his notes so emotionless. at least he makes some money on his own with 25€ entree....
