text: Nice story. And you're right about the unifying thing. Believing in God, country, duty and the golden rule is under threat. I was born to an Iowan army officer in Berlin just before the wall went up. My wife was born a year later in Okinawa to a Filipino naval officer. Met in San Diego at 24. Married a year later. Do filipina women count as Asian by this Indian? Oh, I now have an adult successful mixed race son and 10 nieces and nephews all mixed Asian and white. They are all beautiful and I couldn't be more proud of them. I just don't get the hate.
