Little did I know that the immigrant dream of going to a good school is the penalty that’s forcing my generation of Asian-Americans to turn Dem. I mean if middle America is going to mock the Harvard, Yale, Duke, Stanford, MIT, Chicago grads, we’ll go Dem (travel around in the 3rd World a bit and realize that our taxes actually provide some useful infrastructure).

That’s interesting. Because from my perspective, I see stereotyped Democrats (the stereotyped, union folks, pro middle class labor, pro manufacturing, anti-foreign goods, anti-outsourcing, anti-h1-b folks, the “they’re steal our jobs”, “they steal our education” mentality to be more of threat to asian americans than anything else.
Two words: affirmative action.
Two more words: asian quotas.
I wonder where these ridiculous concepts started.
It’s the “they” concept that these politicians through around over and over and over again.
Repubs I believe have been more friendly to asians than democrats, who policy after policy, have been blaming everything of job loss to “overseas workers” (with I would say the exception is clinton). I don’t know about you, but I find that disturbing as an asian american. I wonder where the asian bashing all started.
And yes our “New Deal” father was also the one that signed the executive order to stick all those “japs” into a concentration camp.
Democrats being a melting pot for minorities? Please….Maybe if you’re african american or hispanic. But I see sh!tload of social policies that have screwed asians up the creek. Fortunately, living in CA, it’s really not an issue, I guess.
But suit yourself. Let’s see this economy go in the crapper, see when Obama and the Democrats get into office, who they’ll blame on all of this job loss and outsourcing. The finger will point at China, and you (unless you dyed your hair blond and change your last name to Chandler) will have a nice target by your good ole union boy that beats you up because he’s pissed his blue collar UAW went overseas due to unfair competition.
