Jeremy Lin

American Chinese (or Chinese in America).. have always been known for their (our?) academic excellence and business acumen... and were looked upon as the "Jews" of Chinese origin. Then we had Bruce Lee, Jacky Chan and Jet Li and Chow Yun Fat who broke ground in Hollywood. Then we had Michael Chang and Yao Ming and now Jeremy Lin who will forever change how Americans view American Chinese and Chinese in general.

OK. What's our next challenge? What else is left? THINK!

A big-time politician, perhaps. A senator, congressmen, governor... or maybe even presidental hopeful. Why not? They (we) certainly get what it takes to succeed in politics. How realistic is that? How long will it take? Don't know! Before Obama, few in America would think a black man could actually move into the White House.

I wager that a Chinese American will be nominated as a candidate for the US Presidency during my life time... and that's certainly something worth waiting for.
