why asian american small business owners should vote for obama

AsiansVote has a really interesting, informative piece on why Asian American small business owners should vote for Barack Obama, contrary to the outright bogus claims of the McCain campaign. A little knowledge goes a long way, and given the state of the economy, everybody could use some good news. Here's the intro to the piece, which gives the short reasoning:
According to last month's National Asian American Survey [pdf], 41 percent of Asian Americans support Barack Obama while only 24 percent support John McCain. But 34 percent remain undecided. If you happen to have undecided friends or relatives, particularly those who own small businesses, feel free to pass on this last minute debunking of Republican misinformation about Obama's tax plans.

The short version? As far as I can tell, the vast majority of small businesses that employ ten or fewer employees not only won't see their taxes increase, but may actually reap tax benefits under an Obama Administration.

The longer version? Read on. (And non-Asians, come on in, the water's fine! Most of this information applies to every small business owner.)
I encourage you to read the rest of the piece, which basically breaks down the misinformation and gives you the truth behind Obama's plan for small business owners. I know this affects the many Asians Americans who own or have family members who own a small business. Read on: Why Asian American small business owners should vote for Barack Obama.
