I'm sure you've talked about it in the past, and this may be me just asking out of not knowing your previous stances, but what are your thoughts on the idea that you are playing essentially modern "yellow-face" roles?

While you obviously have a diverse portfolio of roles, as an Asian-American, I can't help but shake the feeling that much of your roles (especially the earlier ones) bank on the idea of eccentric, awkward, alien, effeminate Asians. Essentially, roles that keep pushing, albeit perhaps unintentionally, the idea of Asians being some strange "other" to an otherwise "normal" America.

Have such thoughts ever crossed your mind and if so, what do you think about them? How do you balance that with the need for visibility as an actor, especially earlier in your career? Or do you feel that perhaps viewers like myself are missing a satirical element that was meant to come across? Thank you for your time!

Honestly, it's pretty telling of how well McCall's campaign will do. Any smart campaign would have done their research and found out that this is a foolish PR step for politicians like McCall. It's amateur hour. Smith will have the 21st without lifting a finger. Like he has since 1987.

Smith has held the 21st since 1987. What makes you think you'll be the Republican to take that from him? How or why will your campaign be special or persuasive enough to do that?

Additionally, what exactly does this from your site mean? Could you elaborate?

"I believe that the Republican Party should be the party of mercy on this subject. I am completely against abortion and would like to eliminate it. While working in that direction we should have mercy, not only on the unborn, but on the women as well. And we should work to protect them from those who would scar them emotionally and physically for the rest of their lives."

Dumb! Who would you say was the most difficult to face in a battle?

Also, you collaborate a bit with some Korean rappers every now and then. What's your take on the hip hop scene there?
