Asians in the White House

Now that we finally have a minority in office, one is to think he must surround himself with white people and he simply represents their ideas. That is not the case with Barack Obama. There are more Asian Americans in american politics than ever before. As a matter of fact, out of the 15 President's Caabinet members, three of them are Asian Americans. That is incredible.
Obama's Cabinet secretary, Chris Lu, was a classmate of obama's at Harvard. His parents were immigrants and he says that him working at the White House is a dream come true. 62% of Asian Americans voted for Obama. According to the Hyphen Magazine, Asian Americans were the deciding factor in the swing states during the 2008 election. Kevin Liao is another Asian American that has worked for Obama. Liao also worked as a part of the youth commission for the San Ftancisco board of Supervisors. The Obama administration has set historic markers in terms of appointment of Asian Americans in the Cabinet and in the White House. Til next time keep it heemin.
