they wouldn't make a difference if they changed their minds anyway.
they represent about 5-6% of the population and vote regularly and without records that eliminate large portions of the population from voting. our national elections are decided by 2-3% usually so that is a potential swing vote
the electoral college may deny the impact of their suffrage, but their population numbers don't

Unless they change religious beliefs (see Jindal, i know) what good does it do for them to switch to the conservative movement?
well having their children properly represented in colleges is the applicable example for this thread
also asians are industrious and do well economically. how does allowing them to keep more of their property/indsutry hurt them?

well I guess it depends on which one you deem most important in an national election. Most importantly, although they represent 5-6 percent of the population, they are not a homogenous ethnic group. Asia is big, and Asian is includes at least 3 different religions, so good luck trying to coral all three into one movement. Just because a Korean american fits agrees with conservative policies, doesn't necessarily mean all Vietnamese, Chinese, or Indians feel the same way.
