do you know this woman?


Who is this woman? Does anyone out there know her or recognize her? Who is this random Asian woman supporter who popped up in tonight's prime time Barack Obama infomercial? Oh, it may have been just a split second, but I saw her. It's what I do. Watch it here, at the 25:44 mark: American Stories, American Solutions.

Alas. It would have been nice if the Obama campaign, in its portrait of regular, everyday America, had chosen to include more Asian Americans somewhere in there. The commercial was just under half an hour long, and while inspirational, was almost devoid of Asian faces... except this woman. Who are you? Step forward and be recognized!
