I have an example to follow
Nov. 7th, 2004 03:11 pmIf there's one thing this election has taught me, it's that I'm not going to make a difference sitting on the fence. So, down the road I've determined to get into politics.
Of course, it's unheard of for a Vietnamese-American to get involved in politics. As a general rule, Vietamese people prefer to hide their true opinions and aren't interested in getting into politics (they're too busy trying to be doctors or engineers).
( Now I have an example that I can follow )
And yes, a lot of the Vietnamese refugee committee in America has this almost irrational fear of Communism. It's almost a sort of McCarthyism without the witch hunts (but only because those who would want those witch hunts don't have the power to carry them out). I'm going to work on changing that.
