Quote:All this once would have been the stuff of liberal dreams: A racial minority group historically victimized by discrimination begins coming to America in greater numbers because of an immigration reform sponsored by Ted Kennedy. Though many in the group remain in poverty, they take advantage of free public schools established by progressive New York City governments. By dint of their own hard work, they earn admission in increasing numbers to merit-based schools that offer smart working-class kids the kind of education once available only at Andover or Choate.
...
To modern “progressive” elites, though, the story is intolerable, starting with the hard work. These liberal elites seem particularly troubled by the Asian-American work ethic and the difficult questions that it raises about the role of culture in group success.

My Wife, who Immigrated when she was 3 attended one of these schools. Her Brother born here a few years later attended another. Hard Working poor immigrants who according to the left "no longer deserve protection"...

I guess there is no racism towards Asians...

The libs know that the asians come here to work hard, study hard and get ahead without the
government nipple. The libs want to protect their future voters, and that isn't the Asians.
It is shameful.

They checked the wrong box.

Well to do Oriental Asians and Indians still vote overwhelmingly blue (even those second/third generation). The mainstream narrative still remains that the Republican party is the white male party and that the dems represent everyone else. That trend will likely continue for a little while longer but probably not forever.

Obama got many of them. With the Asians probably painting them with too broad of a brush.
Better indicators how long has your family been here and country of orgin.

The Vietnamese community in places like Oklahoma and Louisiana vote Republican and are very pro business.

No doubt there are some hard right leaning East Asians in this country in various communities. However, the stats still back up that Asians vote overwhelmingly Democrat (at this point in time) and my anecdotal observations working in the Tech/Finance industry with them leads me to believe most won't be switching sides anytime soon.
