OT: Why do Hispanics and Asians trent heavily to Clinton

[Coronita]

You know. This probably sounds insensitive. But I have some advice for folks who felt they were discriminated against, whether they are asian, black, white, hispanic, gay, etc…. Take a number… In life, you're not dealt an equal hand. Deal with it. Vote based on what you think will benefit you, and be done with it. Discrimination isn't something that's going away, it happens at all sorts of levels, intentional or not. There's really no point in crying the "victim" game, because if everyone stop and thinks about it, they probably are a victim of something unfortunate.

Me…I'm still looking to qualify under an affirmative action plan into the NBA. But when that happens, I think our basketball teams won't be able to compete at the international level…Oh wait…let me think about that 🙂

Hmm.. Isn't that a rather minimalist practice of good Citizenship? I am pretty sure most people won't benefit significantly differently, individually, based on who becomes the next President. But the overall direction of our Civilization can change dramatically – as the last 8 years have demonstrated forcefully. I think being a little more concerned about the future of Community/State/Nation is not entirely useless.

Yes, this would be minimalist..But for some, motivating to be a "minimist" to effect change is better than being do-nothing-and-play-victim-ist. And yes, i feel sometimes you need to think about yourself first before you can take care of others.

For example: tax issues: If I give 30-40% of my income to say the under a robin-hood bailout plan, for example, I jeopardize my own  family and self livelihood, not to mention, no one learns from this who gets bailed out. If  I can decide keep and decide to down with the 30-40%, I could use it to start a company (for example), which if successful, would create jobs. Perhaps this is a very narrowminded and naive-thinking.
