Back in 2010, I highlighted Asian Americans running for public office and their television commercials. Now, with a record number of Asian Americans running for Congress, it’s even more important to highlight leadership role models such as these individuals. After the break, you’ll see at least one television commercial or web video from each of the candidates I was able to find a video available to post. If all Americans start seeing more Asian Americans as Americans involved in the political process, maybe the “perpetual foreigner” persona will eventually disappear. Let’s hope so.
