Considering that there are so many more Indians than there are Americana, and having regard not just to the mean or median of the IQ distributions but to the dispersion of the distributions there are probably a lot more smart Indians than there are smart Americans and Vivelk is one of the smart ones.

I wonder if his arrogance derives from not merely being smarter than Americans (other than those from New Hampshire who are among the smartest people in the world) but also from being allegedly "Aryan."
As we've previously discussed, some Hindus believe that Adolph Hitler was an avatar of Vishnu (i.e., God Incarnate) and are awaiting the Second Coming of Hitler.
Hitler-worshipping Hindus generally depict Hitler as a white European male.
It would be weird for Vivek to see himself as the Scond Coming of Hitler, God Incarnate, but anything is possible.
Vivek is more than likely a Brahmin. Being at the top of the caste system and witnessing Americans hero worshipping Diddy and Justin Bieber could lead easily to viewing Americans as lower than India's untouchables.
Only upper caste Hindus migrate from India. The lower castes remain in squalor in India. The caste system is based on the doctrine of reincarnation that posits that we are what we are in this life because of what we were in our previous life. Therefore any attempt at self-improvement is in vain. This enables the upper castes to retain control.

Vivek has difficulty concealing his condescension. Nothing you said about him seems terribly far-fetched.
