Obama was groomed up thru the Chicago Democratic apparatus for 10 years — it took them a decade to mould him into the package they presented when he ran in 2007. And his closet is very much full of skeletons (the 3 dead 'lovers' etc).
Vivek's life and rise has been a lot more transparent. He grew up in Ohio to immigrant parents. His whole job history is known and recorded. He's written multiple books fleshing out his policy and business views. People who went to high school and college speak well of him (unlike Obama - very hard to even find anyone who knew him in the old days...). There is a lot of visibility on Vivek, including where his money comes from, which bodes well I think.
Nikki (Nimarata Randhawa) was born in South Carolina, to Punjabi Seikh immigrant parents, who had immigrated in the 1960s (first to Canada, then to South Carolina where she was born). Her father was a professor, so the family moved (India > Canada > USA) because of his academic postings.
Vivek was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, to Indian Hindu immigrant parents who moved to America from Kerala. His father was an engineer, and after they immigrated he went to work for General Electric. Vivek went to St. Xavier's (the Catholic school in Cincinnati) and was valedictorian of his high school class. Then he went to Harvard (BA) and then Yale for law school.
Being born in the US makes one a citizen. The president and vice-president must be "natural born citizens" meaning their parents immigration status matters. Obama, Vivek and Haley don't qualify...neither does Kamala.

Yes. Comparing him to Obama is totally ignorant.
I thought Vivek, Hayley and Shiva were ineligible to run as not Natural Born Citizens? Did not stop Obama though
Vivek and Nikki are both American born.

Something about their parents status when they were born?
