Regardless of the nation of origin, Obama got 73% of the Asian vote in 2012, second only to his 93% of the black vote and up from 62% in 2008. That is my concern.
We are adding the equivalent of a city the size of Dallas, Texas in green cards every year and a city the size of Charlotte, North Carolina in new naturalizations.
We are also screwing up massively by not picking up most of the Asian immigrants as Republican voters.
They are more socially and economically conservative than most white populations that do vote Republican.
Of these groups the Filipinos and Vietnamese are reliably Republican, the others not. There is NO difference in essential social attitudes between Filipinos, Vietnamese, Chinese or Indians.
The real problem is a total lack of outreach, plus incredibly poor messaging.
