With this kind of hatred by right wing towards non-whites, GOP should forget any Asian votes.

Liberals are just so sweet....can't we all get along...

Openly declared as “Obama’s Brain”, and the figure whose second story West Wing office has been described by political insiders as the true Oval Office of the Obama White House, Valerie Jarrett is letting it be known that if Barack Obama secures election victory next week, there may be, quite literally, hell to pay for those who opposed him.

People with higher IQs tend to have a higher level of education, higher income, and tend to vote more liberally. So there really isn't any surprise here.

To rephrase it. Asian-Americans tend to be very science/technology focused, urban, and college or graduate school educated. The GOP tends to be rural, southern, anti-science, pro-religion, and prefers work experience over "book smarts." Those cultural chasms trump the "work hard" factor. Yes, Asian Americans work hard, but so do Mexican Americans and many other democratic voters. I've worked very hard all my life, as have most scientists I know, but none of us are going to start becoming Tea Partiers anytime soon.

I'll give you a good reason. Because eventually the bills have to be paid and those that are successful are being made into the enemy. FDR did it and Obama is doubling down on it. Check out how high the tax rates were under FDR and before Reagan cut them. Many Asians own a business or are professionals and have money, property, WEALTH. Yes....they are going to be the new evil group in this country. Just wait a few elections and see what the level of "wealthy" becomes...oh, about 45k or so...."Pay their fair share...or "just a little more"......

Really, Anti-science, so we don't agree with Al Gore and we are anti-science. Ever see Al Gore debate Global Warming with anyone? He refuses.

50 percent of Hispanics drop out of high school. There is an increasing number of single Hispanic women under the age of 19. Drug abuse is up too....so when they become the majority do you think they are going to demand more Liberalism?

Asian Americans overwhelmingly backed Obama, Democrats - latimes.com
the fact that you don't understand... illustrates why you lost the election...where many of you on the right get your information about current events and especially obama's policies and positions on things are either skewed or totally unfounded and wrong altogether.
obama actually supports small business, and supports tax structures that favor worker and small business in spite of what you hear on faux news..

you guys need to start getting your information from somewhere else, because you were also told it was going to be a romney landslide by all of fox's pollsters and pundits..and look what happened.. not just a little bit wrong.. but WAY wrong.

Yes, conservatives are in an alternate reality when it comes to public policy.

It's not difficult based on polling data to say why Asian Americans voted for President Obama. They supported his vision.

In terms of why Asians mostly vote for Democratic party its clear that if one looks are which party most elected Asian official belong, over 90% of all elected Asian in Congress are Democrats.

Aw, some good old fashioned Republican racism. That will win them over.
