The absurdity of a foreign immigrant being a "conservative" leader of another nation is beyond ridiculous.
No matter how "based" you may be, imagine going to India or Sri Lanka or Iran and trying to tell them that you have the answer to their society, that you have some "conservative" values you are going to teach the people. It's impossible to overcome the internal inconsistency of being a foreigner inserted into their society, but then supposedly also a conservative person.
There is really no way an immigrant can ever be a conservative leader. The best they could do is to simply go along with the status quo standards of the society. Or you could do some sort of new system like traditional Muslims are doing in America with their anti-gayness, but that's a big difference from what America has been in the past, so that a sense it is anti-conservative even if it is opposing degeneracy.
There is something that really rubs me the wrong way when Vivek waxes poetic about the founders of America. Imagine going to India and preaching to them about what Ghandi would really want for them, and yeah vote for me the white guy to help you Become Who You Are. It's absurd.
It only works to the degree it does with Vivek because the Republican Party is such a failure in representing conservatism in any form. Think really hard about one positive thing conservative legislators have done in the past 20 years. I could more easily think of a Democratic accomplishment.
