@explosivmode lol, donald trump as president???? LOL! that will never happen, obama will get re-elected, watch. and its the other way around, china sees america as the enemy, and its not a war about who has the bigger guns, its a financial war, and china is winning

These are only the Japanese and the Chinese Asians, what about the Asians from other countries who live in America? You did not cover them in your video.
