Asian American Vote

First I'm not up-to-date with the Democratic party, and the different solutions that Obama and Clinton pose to the same problems. I know that it's a tight race, and the Obama has a majority of the votes from the delegates for the Democratic party nomination. I've also heard that Clinton will support Asians, and Obama did not (or something like that).
The clip below has Beau Sia, of Def Poetry fame, encouraging and motivating Asian Americans to recognize the authority and power they have in voting and asking the the politicians to focus on Asian Americans and their contribution to this country, and recognize that they need our vote too. So as much as this post is about voting, and being politically active or aware, it's also about being Asian American and recognizing what obstacles are against our people group.
