This was a very big disappointment for me when I heard that about 70% of Asians voted for Obama.

Lots of Asian immigrants are impoverished these days or lower middle class. So they see the free for all anarchy and idiocy here and clamp on the Gov’t tit same as the other minorities. They are running lots of scams that involve free Gov’t money and dodging taxes. Many immigrants believe that paying taxes is for suckers.

One favorite Chinese scam is bring over elderly parents (legally) and get them on the SS disability system, subsidized housing and medicaid. This is their retiremant plan. take take take from those who kicked into the system via SS taxes

I can only think they suffer the same thing as other groups.

#1 Many on the dole or family on the dole.
#2 Many working for government or have family working for government.
#3 Obama Phones....

Maybe they are very liberal minded and don’t forget if you go to YouTube it is the Asians you see capturing animals and doing things like skinning them alive, so there can be a differnt mind set.

Also, many Asians are used to communism and Democrats are there for that also.

The "War on Science," like the "War on Women," is just propaganda, and it's unfortunate that Chinn fell for it. But the basic argument is valid.

A lot of us would like to define politics in terms of whether you are for or against some secular liberal elite. For a lot of people, though, especially in the cities, political positions are defined by whether you are for or against Evanglicals, fundamentalists, or moralistic social conservatives. Living mostly in metropolitan areas and not being Evangelicals or fundamentalists, most Asians voted Democrat.

Also, groups that think of themselves as being in someway "outsiders" vote for the party identified with "outsiders," and right now that's the Democrats. Was this really a surprise?

Why do you liberals trust government , government bureaucrats and politicians you morons ? And they trust them with their lives = height of idiocy.

Most idiots that vote for democrats don't understand how democrats are growing government and so taking away our freedom , opportunity to make money etc.

Hey liberal dummies socialism doesn't work and if you vote for democrats you vote for socialism(growing government) and to become slaves of the government you idiots. Why do you liberals trust government and government bureaucrats and politicians you morons?

2. Identity politics. The media has brainwashed many non-whites to think that they must vote for democrats. This is why we in the GOP have to run a non-white or woman like Palin, Haley etc. That is to break the liberal media lie and brainwashing. this is why the media smeared Palin , Cain etc so savagely

3. Most foreigners don't share our American values of liberty and limited government which is why democrats have imported 100 million non-white foreigners , mostly poor from 3rd world with their 1965 immigration act: before that most immigrants to U.S.A were white and from Europe.

The polling data on which this conclusion is based is threadbare at best.

Simply backing out the Japanese American vote in Hawaii would drop all the other asian Americans down to the Republican level.

I think the answer is found in two areas, which are only tangentially about ethnicity.

The first is education. Asian-Americans have college degrees in greater numbers than any other generalized ethnic group, and college-educated people are more likely to be indoctrinated in the ideology of the Democratic Party.

The second is the general East Asian tendency towards Confucian rather than Aristotelian thinking. Confucian ethics promote group rather than individual effort, along with the idea of the benevolent ruler who regulates the lives of his subjects for their own benefit—such as in Singapore, though it is also true at varying levels in Japan, South Korea, and the “Han” areas in China.

There’s also a third possibility, which, if it is indeed part of the picture, would be more true of recent immigrants. Just as the immigrant Jews from eastern Europe, Russia, and Ukraine were socialists because of their old-country influences, immigrant Asians bring with them the semi-to-full-socialist presumptions of their native lands.

"This was a very big disappointment for me when I heard that about 70% of Asians voted for Obama."

This is characteristic of the analysis resulting from meaningless data. You have no way of knowing how Asians voted. The old saw “Garbage in, garbage out” applies. This is not an easy concept to explain, even to bright people, who don't understand our election systems. Few understand our election systems, and that is intentional. Our voting system is entirely unverifiable. Knowing that, would you expect the SEIU, which is responsible for (you notice I didn't say “counts”) a large percentage of the the votes reported in the US, would you expect the SEIU to report votes for a candidate, or candidates, who promised to reduce the numbers of Government/SEIU positions?

The simple, but not at all obvious, fact is that when we did away with local precinct counts and paper ballots, we eliminated what is called an audit trail from our voting process. When data are handled by anyone, let alone people with a fiduciary interest in the outcome, in private, the data must be presumed contaminated. That is why OJ Simpson had to be acquitted. With half the physical data collected by each of two criminologists, who sign and date every sample they collect, but only evidence with one criminologist is presented by the prosecution, none of those data were admissible. You couldn't say with certainty that it was corrupted, but you had to assume that, because there was no baseline count, and no check of any sort to support how ballots were marked. When votes are not counted under the purview of local precinct workers, volunteers, from both parties, before the ballots leave the room where they were marked, those votes cannot be trusted. When the SEIU maintains computers, or computerized machinery, machinery which itself conceals how the data are processed, the data are useless, except to politicians, who use the presumed results to redistribute the wealth of a society.

Our current president spent several years as a trainer for Project Vote, a division of Acorn. Our voting, and all the analysis about why Asians, or why Jews, or why 140% of registered blacks, is just nonsense. Without reliable elections we are watching a transition to socialist dictatorship, using the misplaced trust of a naive electorate. With the SEIU now in place in the electoral process, voting is pointless. There is no audit trail. There is no way of proving anything. Anyone can report “exit polls”, but few who actually perform them want to report results that appear so inconsistent with the reported numbers. Those numbers are garbage, and are being used to further divide ethnic groups.

How could anyone acquire data confirming Asian voting patterns? Having some familiarity with Asians, especially, but not exclusively, immigrant Chinese, they are loath to discuss political choices with anyone. Such careless talk sent their parents to camps, or to their deaths. Those controlling the votes reported from precincts, and not wanting their manipulations to be too obvious, used Asian precincts for just that reason.

There are lots of reason for claiming 69% of Jews voted for Obama. This helps to separate the foolish Jews who would support the Muslim Brotherhood sponsor in the White House from Christians, who have been among the strongest supporters of Israel. Anyone who knows those Jews who vote in the US elections, often because they maintain homes in both countries, knows that those living in Israel are more secular - liberal - than those living in the US. But Haaretz, Israel's Washington Post equivalent, reported that 89% of those Jews, living in Israel, but voting in US elections, voted for Romney. Phony election data are being used to further divide our citizens.

Elections have gone the way of our major media. Those reporting data probably know the data are nonsense, but are dependent upon the “progressives” controlling two, and perhaps three, branches of our government for their survival. Elections may now be lumped with the major media. The media use fictitious counts to further the ends of the “fair” one party nation we have become.

It is no coincidence that the local counts were ended at the behest of major media, which claimed that local counts denied their audiences the timely reports of elections the public wanted. The public didn't realize that feeding data directly to the media, which is what happened - the five major media outlets owned Voter New Service which actually collated counts fed directly to its offices in New York - ended any pretense at verifiable elections.

Genetically disposed to socialism if not communism.

As Noahpinion observes, given Asian American’s higher than average income, the Romney-esque argument that the group is one of “takers” not “makers” cannot be correct (of course, there is little empirical content to this particular thesis, anyway).

Romney won two of the ten richest counties.
