Our friend Mark Allen assembled a kick ASSSSSS commercial for MTV that
advocates Asian-Americans to go out and vote this November. The
commercial stars Kelly Hu (woo!), Russell Wong, John Cho, Tamilyn
Tomita, Maggie Q, and Ming-Na and also has stunts by our very own Li
Jing. Check out this very cool commercial and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE send
it out to your friends. It's very important that all Asian-Ams flex
their voting muscle this election or our politicians will have very
little incentive to promote Asian-Am positive legislation and policies.
It's time that legislation contain some thought of what's benefiting
Asian Am minorities (the least likely demographic to vote) rather than
just white senior citizens in Florida (the most likely demographic to
vote).

Please pass around this link to your friends:

Also, if you haven't registered to vote or haven't updated your
registration, you only have about another 3 weeks before it's TOO LATE.
You can do it now for free AND online by going
here.
