Maryland Super Delegate Bel Leong-Hong Endorses Obama
Posted by Asian Americans for ObamaWe’ve already noted the several dozen new super delegates that announced today, but I wanted to highlight particularly the just-announced endorsement of Bel Leong-Hong of Maryland, Chair of the DNC’s AAPI Caucus.
As a champion for AAPI issues, Bel released the following statement:
I’m endorsing Barack Obama today because I believe he is
the strongest candidate for the Asian-American and Pacific Islander
community and he understands that it’s time for AAPI
issues—immigration, education, and small business policy, for
example—to be discussed on the national stage. And as someone who has
lived in AAPI and international communities, I know he shares our
unwavering belief in America as a land of prosperity and opportunity
for all.Obama has shown a remarkable ability to bring people
together, and I know that Democrats will unite behind him to take on
John McCain and stand up for a new direction for this country.I
look forward to working with Senator Obama and his campaign to actively
engage our Asian American and Pacific Islander community in the general
election. Our community is actively participating in this exciting
election and will be a critical, swing-vote constituency contributing
to a historic democratic victory in November.
Asian Americans are making a difference this election cycle, and we will continue to make our voices heard. Thanks, Bel!
