[quote=FlyerInHi]OCr, are you sure Asian-Americans are natural republicans? I have read that long time Asian Americans in the Bay Area and Hawaii were democrats. Hawaii for sure.
The Vietnamese were stauncly republicans because Gerald Ford, by executive order, allowed refugees into the country despite popular protest. But that’s changing with the younger generations.
Maybe Chinese immigrants from Taiwan and immigrants fleeing the cultural revolution lean republican because of anti communism. But again that’s changing with the younger generations.
Cubans were the most diehard republicans, more than any group, but they are turning democrat.
Seems to me like anti communism is not the number 1 issue anymore. Maybe we can look at precinct data from Asian areas from the last presidential and compare to this November.[/quote]
Natural republicans in regard to views in regard to limitation in government’s role and personal responsibility in one’s own success.
Of course, this is a very general stereotype. And certainly have eroded throughout the last decade or so as the GOP cry of limited government has proven to be hollow with its support of intrusive government in personal rights, big government in anything defense related, and lastly just an overall racist feel to the entire party.
