Well, I agree that it is going to take the anime fandom getting involved in sci-fi to help it grow.
As far as the NASFic bid goes, heck you can start now. Send off some e-mails to the people that ran the Worldcon in Baltimore to see if they would help you, or if they might be interested in running a NASFic bid for 2010. There was a hoax bid/party excuse for Bucconeer 2 on the Worldcon bids page, but no e-mail listed.
Balitmore has excellent convention facilities, and a cool city to boot - so why not hold a NASFiC??
