Shiva Ayyadurai, a scientist and entrepreneur, has become the 4th Indian-American to announce his candidature as an independent candidate for the 2024 US presidential election.
The 59-year-old Mumbai-born elaborated on his decision to join the Presidential race by saying that he wants to serve America, beyond “Left” and “Right” and focus on delivering solutions that people need and deserve, in his campaign bid recently.
“I am running for President of the United States of America. We stand at the crossroads where we can either head into a Golden Age or into the Darkness… America becomes great when innovators, entrepreneurs, working people with skills, and those committed to using common sense and reason run this country,” Ayyadurai added.
Ayyadurai who left India in 1970 and came to live the American dream along with his parents, settled in Paterson, New Jersey. “I left the caste system of India in 1970 where we were considered low caste ‘Untouchables’ and ‘Deplorables’,” claimed his campaign website.
His campaign bid outlined that America is being stopped from becoming great by the old guard of career politicians, political hacks, lawyer-lobbyists, and academics who pervade the country and local government with crony capitalism and corruption.
