As recently as the mid 90s, Asians voted majority Republican, as expected, in line with their economic and cultural values. The flip from R to D is shocking for those reasons and with how quickly it happened – 1 generation.

As such, the demographic political change isn’t an Asian phenomenon. It’s an American social-political phenomenon.

It’s an American activist phenomenon.

The Republicans shouldn’t have lost the Asian vote in the 1st place – the switch in the Asian vote is a bellwether.

Republicans should reasonably be able to win back the Asian vote just as they had it a mere generation ago. Asian core values haven’t changed that much in 1 generation. If Republicans can manage to win back the Asians, that will be a bellwether, too.

My take is the vote for Obama and Democrats in general is less due to Asians being Asian than Asians being city. City social politics are deep blue and it’s not just Asian urbanites voting Democrat.

IIRC, the minority of Asians who lived in red areas outside of the blue urban centers tend to vote Republican with their neighbors.

That’s because the tour was cut-rate cheap (at least for the tour company, if not their charged prices, though likely their prices, too), not because of culture. Later generational, wealthier Asian Americans tour like everyone else.

The Asians are the latest representative of the American middle-class classic of self-reliant immigrant strivers, which is antithetical to the Left’s narrative of a fixed benevolent elite in league with a beholden dependent underclass. Notice how, once again, the demographic picture presented in the Saffran article is of the top and bottom squeezing the middle.

I would never have been accepted into any of these schools.

I met only one guy from Bronx Science, and I didn’t like him.

And this STILL pisses me off.

Instead of enhancing the level of education for all students, this will decrease the number of highly trained and motivated students. It is a way for the current elite to say, “will the last one in please close the gate?”

While hard work and good grades are great things, but thinking outside the box is also important.

Further, the Democrat party is widely seen by Asians as permissive in the extreme for further immigration.

This stance trumps all other factors.

Legally sanctioned immigration is ALREADY blowing the roof off of America’s population growth.

On current trends, immigration is hollowing out American culture.

This is seen in the wide spread tendency to get by without learning American English.

The credentials are only for the Ruling Class, the D Class. Chelsea, what do you think she is doing and where do you think she was educated? Hussein’s children, where do you think they are being educated at?

That’s because the Republican party is propagandized as the party of exploiting workers and deporting foreigners.

Propaganda works on more than just Jews, blacks, and Democrat Americans.
