The US has reached a demographic tipping point, with most babies born now belonging to minority groups.
According to the US Census bureau, black, Hispanic, Asian and mixed-race births made up 50.4% of new arrivals in the year ending in July 2011.
The official notice foreshadows the day, expected in the 2040s, when non-Hispanic whites - like the group that founded America - will be in the minority.BBC News - What will a white-minority US look like?
So could it mean the Spanish speaking minority would assimilate and would much more commonly use English rather than Spanish? In addition would there soon be a Hispanic president?
Plus would the culture of the US be similiar today as in 50 years time?
PS: No racist comments here please.
For conservatives an America that isn't majority white, is an America they don't want.
As far as predictions, I'd say this nation will not be much different then it is right now.
Liberals need to quit making an issue about race - people are tired of it and wish that the liberals would join the rest of us in a colorblind 21st century.

How can you have a discussion about race without racist comments? Or do you mean negative racist comments? LOL

As long as we ignore our borders, our country will be overrun with uncontrolled immigration. I'm not anti-immigration, but why don't Canada and Mexico ignore their borders like we do?
