Note there are 16 Chinese, 10 Indians,
among this list of 40 super-achievers

There are no Somalis, no Nigerians, no Mexicans, no Hispanics, no Arabs, no Algerians, no Afghans, no Vietnamese, no Indonesians, no Thais, no Pakistanis, no Bangladeshis, no Africans, no Afro-caribbeans
In short, no winner from any of the liberal favorites.

and even among the Indians , all 10 are upper caste Hindus
