@AndrewYang This is why I can't take you seriously my dude. Because at the end of the day, politics is just a game to you and your friends. But for so many people, politics have become a life or death situation and until it's treated as such, there won't be substantial change in this country

Not that anyone cares, but I get a deep sense of pride that the Cowboys hired an Indian American wide receivers coach. Not so much because I'm a fan of the Cowboys, but because I'm proud of Sanjay Lal for overcoming the stereotypes that I know are difficult to break in sports.
