    Asians have never really had liberal darling status given their self sufficiency. Libs have no use for them.

    White ethnicities cover several months. Yes, it's a pity there's no white American month, but it's no more of a travesty than not having a Nigerian-American month... or Ethiopian-American month... etc...

    Really? I don't remember any Nigerians or Ehtiopians serving in my unit in Vietnam, in fact, I don't recall any of these people making any contributions to this country. Therein lies the rub. But nice try to minimize the importance of white people here.

    WTH? So Nigerian Americans and Ethiopian Americans i. e. "African Americans" have never contributed to this country.

    You sound even more ignorant than usual...and that's quite a stretch... not to mention the point that flew over your malformed little head. SMH...

    they are too busy studying their arses off and making up ~20% of the best colleges in the country to worry about such nonsense .....
