So, if you hate Republicans, RATs and Libertarians...

You got nowhere to go. Do you actually vote, or just b!tch?

[chris37]

You wouldn't be able to process or comprehend my answer to your asinine question, so I'm not going to bother to answer it. Have a nice day.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Loud and clear, you’re another RAT enabler.

Suburbanite Asians in California and New Jersey vote Democrat.

In general an area has to be below 1,000 people per square mile to reliably vote Republican. Even when Asians move to the suburbs they prefer high density housing, big houses on small plots of land, with the next door houses about 5 feet away. They are ok with big gov style HOA rules and regulations, a requirement for orderly high density living.

I didn’t know Asians all thought alike. I gave them more credit than that.

The general record is that Hindus and Muslim from India and Pakistan vote Democrat. You can confirm this on line.

One example is loony foreign born gun garbber who 0Bungu wants to make Surgeon General. He is a Hindu born in England w parent born in India-— Dr. Vivek Murthy

Why do Indian-Americans flock to the Democratic Party?
California delegates Harpreet Sandhu (r) and Kulbir Kaur Bainiwal (l) at the 2012 Democratic Convention in Charlotte NC The Indian-American vote could be crucial in swing states in the upcoming US elections

As the US gets ready for elections later this year, Washington-based journalist Seema Sirohi explores why many Indian-Americans support the Democratic Party.

A young Indian-American recounted recently that his mother, who is working hard on President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign in the tough swing state of Florida, had told him flatly not to come home if he decided to vote for Mitt Romney, the Republican rival.

He laughed but said his mother was not exactly joking when she issued the warning.

Maybe nationwide but in the South the Indians tend to vote republican. Must be a Southern thing.

George W. Bush killed us with Asians for a generation. Everything Asians dislike about America embodied and the GOP made him President.

[Cyber Liberty]

Sorry, Asians, but the GOPe would rather court the Hispanic vote, and they’ve already told the GOPe “No Asians!”

[JSDude1]

I agree, and as long as they’re conservative with the goals of this group as well!!

Thanks for being here and posting. This prejudice thing can be pretty tricky.

A great example is your referring to NASCAR as if all conservatives are NASCAR fans. That is of course a wild generalization. You would be offended if I said all Asians are good students or belong to Asian gangs or that they like Sumo wrestling because these are stereotypes and are provably false.

Frankly were I to say all Asians like Sumo wrestling that would probably as crazy and false as saying all NASCAR fans are rebels with suppressed and violent urges.

I think a lot of us agree that sports are overemphasized in public education. I note that there have been more and more Asian Americans on Olympic teams recently.

As for not being liked by white people, I think this is a prejudice of yours as well. A friend of mine was being treated by a Chinese (from China) doctor at a Veteran’s Admin Hospital in Milwaukee WI. In the conversation the doctor told my friend that he had been afraid to come to Milwaukee because Milwaukee does not have a Chinatown. Not having a Chinatown meant that probably people in Milwaukee do not like Chinese. But he came anyway and was so happy that all of his neighbors accepted him for who he was.

You must not be in my industry (software) because there are many many Asians that achieve high ranks in companies like Oracle, Microsoft. And your use of a Hollywood liberal product as a datapoint leads to my last point

You admit that people of your Asian backgrounds cannot tell the difference between white people (between Republicans and Democrats). If I said that about Asians you would call me prejudiced (Since I lived for a year in Korea I am actually pretty sophisticated in differences between Koreans-Japanese-Chinese). It is so sad that your community can’t tell the difference because if there is a white subgroup that doesn’t like Asians… Well let me say it another way.

Big Bang Theory is produced by white liberals. White liberals are the ones who hurt Asian Americans by enforcing affirmative action. This is provably damaging to the hardworking Asian American students. If anyone is trying to take away the damage of discrimination against Asian Americans coming from Affirmative Action it is white Conservatives.

It is tragic that your community falls for media propaganda and Democrat duplicity wrongly as you say. I hope you will come back to FR frequently and observe for yourself that conservatives seek a colorblind, free society where hardworking people are able to succeed and we have American brotherhood.

They seem to lean liberal up here in the Northeast.

Bummer—I should have thought of that.
