It is good to see an Asian face running on the Republican ticket. Asians are a potential good source of conservative votes because Asians have conservative values. I think if Republicans stress common values with the Asians such as law and order and holding on to the money that you earn, many Asians will start to come around. I think that seeing an Asian face will attract many Asians to the party.

We can reach out to qualified and talented Asians without pandering. I think we have to rethink the whole ethnic outreach rather than slavishly copying the Democrat approach of giving away government jobs, welfare and more immigration. We can appeal to Asians without promising special treatment. The Dems go to all the ethnic groups promising each that somehow they will get special treatment. You can't give each group the illusion that it will receive special treatment. That just causes division among groups. I think that Republicans can find many new voters among the Asian population without becoming panderers like the Democrats.

Asians don't need special treatment. They'll do fine as long as the competition is fair.

The reality is they're the ones suffering discrimination today ( witness the affirmative action policies for college entrance for instance ).
