Revolting campaign message in Massachusetts [View all]

I was on my way to Boston Logan Airport yesterday when I saw an SUV with a campaign sign for so-called independent Senate candidate Shiva Ayyadurai. The sign has a picture of this boob next to a picture of Senator Warren wearing a Native American headdress. The tag line. Vote for a real Indian, not a fake Indian.

This is offensive on so many levels. This guy claims to be running as an independent, but touts on his website that he was invited by the buffoon-in-chief to the inauguration. Also, he seems to be running on the same insult platform as the b-i-c. And, although I didn't delve too deep into his policies, I would put money that he is opposed to immigration even though he is an immigrant. And while I don't care about a candidate's race, ethnicity, etc., I kind of like my candidates to be running as real Americans, not real Indians.
