Andrew Yang Founds the Forward Party
Per Asian's traditional culture it's on the conservative side(hard working to earn your life, minimal welfare/food-stamp, family value, education first, law and order,etc), so yeah for the most part they're republican in heart.As minorities many of them(including Andrew Yang) chose to stand with other minorities fought for 'social justice / equity everything'(welcome to the liberal democratic party!), which for the most part, it means the opposite of their culture and core value.It's hard to imagine hard-working mindset can get along with welfare/equity thoughts for too long.Thus the 3rd party, as he can't really fit into each side.
