He will make great VP: Usha

Milwaukee, July 18

Senator JD Vance would make a great vice president for America, his Indian-American wife Usha Chilukuri Vance has said, as she introduced him to Americans by giving an insight into their life, about him accepting her vegetarian diet and his ability to cook Indian food.

A Yale law graduate and a trial lawyer, Usha, 38, who has so far maintained a very low profile, acknowledged that she and her husband come from very different backgrounds – he, a white man from the rust belt, and she the daughter of Indian immigrants. She said the fact that the pair of them are even together is a testament to the kind of country America is.

“He will make a great Vice President of the United States,” she said. “We were friends first,” said Usha.
