Hillary Clinton: The Asian-American choice
Barack Obama may be the "diverse" candidate, but in California, his voters came in just two colors: black and white.

    Anonymous, did you even read my comment? I'm opposed to broad labeling of any group. I wasn't trying to call Asian Americans racist or not racist for that matter. When I made the conjecture Asian-Americans were probably more racist than whites, I was trying to make a point that it doesn't really matter if 10 out of 100 Asians are racist versus 8 out of 100 whites (completely made up statistics there). Even if I cite actual statistics it's rather meaningless. The point is to have a healthy discussion, and you know what we can have healthy discussion of race that is both critcal, biting and free of broad brush strokes.

    There's no need to have such a knee jerk reactions.
