Rediff.com, an India-based web portal, did an interesting profile on an Obama advisor:

"If Obama’s amazing run can be credited to his team, it is heartening to note that the second in command in the area of immigration is an Indian American, Preeta Bansal. The 42-year-old lawyer is a partner at Skadden, Arps, slate, Meagher & Fom in New York City…

Preeta Bansal advises Obama on international human rights, legal issues, foreign policy, women’s issues, and outreach to Asian-Americans. He is ‘able to advance progressive principles, but he’s not one of those starry-eyed liberals,’ Bansal told the publication, National Journal. ‘With him, two plus two equals five, not four. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts."
