• CNN piss me off! More racism from established media..

  Ok, I don’t care who you are voting for, but obviously CNN thinks Asian Americans are ignorant, dumb, and vote out of fear.

  CNN has aired a piece on their channel interviewing Asian Americans on who they would vote for. The conclusion? They would rather vote for Hillary than Obama because Asian Americans are afraid of black people. GIVE ME A BREAK!!! Do you know how much Asian Americans and every other minority groups in American BENEFIT from African Americans’ leadership in the civil rights movement???

  Asian Americans are not single-minded or ignorant like CNN would want us to be. If CNN could just check the recent US Census sheet, Asian Americans have the most highest degrees and make the most money on average than anybody. Truly, we are well educated and socially aware to make informed decisions.

  Asian Americans have reasons to vote for Clinton. They also have reasons to vote for Obama. They do not vote out of fear!

  What’s worse, the CNN video segments only interview Asians with BROKEN ENGLISH!!! Why don’t you come here and interview me and numerous other Asian Americans who would tell you a piece of our minds in better English than you can imagine. Why cherry pick only Asians with broken English? So that the media can further establish that they think Asians don’t belong here and are not true Americans.

  Telling us to go back to China or whatever is like telling white people to go back to Mesopotamia!

  We are Americans because we believe in the ideals of democracy and freedom and we live, work, and protect this country like any other people.

  ARGH! This is disgusting. I need to take a shower now. The link below is the CNN video segment and the story. The link after that is a petition that you should sign to tell CNN that they’re wrong and they need to rectify the problem.

  (By the way, all Asian Americans should vote, no matter who you vote for. It just so happens that according to the Census, Asian Americans are least likely to vote, thus the candidates ignore us. Vote and be counted! After you sign the petition….)
