To be honest there isnt a lot of data on it. I took a look at the US census site but armenian isnt an ethnicity choice on the census.


So there is no way to say definatively what the stats are, this site states 500,000 to 2,000,000 but its clearly an estimate and perhaps bias.

Regarding your questions about Obama, this seems to be a real easy foriegn policy position. We recognized armenia in the early 90's and if I recall it wasnt at the compliments of the turkish. Essentially, its a pretty solid and well treaded "safe" foriegn policy subject for U.S. domestic consumption.

I think it has little to do with the international issues LEN, not that you were desiring to go down that road, but its a what we call in the states a slam dunk. domestically, its a non contreversial position that dosent wrankle to many international feathers, yet adhere's to the mainstream beliefs of the U.S. electorate.
