Awaiting my Asian President

Here is an interesting article about how Asians rock, when it comes to learning.  I am eagerly awaiting the day we elect our first Asian president, who hopefully will be from the San Francisco Bay Area. 

The most recent academic test scores from the Program for International Student Assessment show that four of the world's five top-scoring countries are Asian countries. (Finland is the non-Asian exception). In California, Asians represent 12 percent of high school graduates, but one-third of admissions to the University of California and almost half of all undergraduate admissions to UC San Diego.

Likewise the latest U.S. Census figures show that Asians as a group are much more likely to have college degrees and also have much higher household incomes.

Averaged over the entire year (including summer vacations), the average, non-Hispanic white student spends 5.5 hours per week studying and doing homework, while Hispanic and non-Hispanic black students spend even less. In contrast, the average Asian student spends a whopping 13 hours per week, according to the American Time Use Survey
