Women have never had much power. Ditto with minorities.

Women in power are more accepted in a lot of cultures outside of the USA so this might actually be good for women. Women might not do well if Saudi Arabians were taking over the USA, but a lot of other areas could move in and it wouldn't make a difference. In South America, women do well.
What, why should we be quaking in our boots? Race and gender mean little today and in fact, we are at a disadvantage (affirmative action and other symptoms of white guilt) but we seem to be doing fine. Are you insinuating there might be violence if/when whites are no longer the majority?

Its great that women and minorities have options now, you want to guess who gave it to them? White men. No matter how much marching and whatnot, it was the white man that gave you equality (a gift that should've came much earlier I admit)

White people, including white Hispanics, have the bulk of the money so they will always be in charge of this country. The term ''Hispanic'' is ridiculous anyway. They are white, black, mixed race, Indian, mestizo, or any combination of the above.
