Rest assured that is not necessarily true. I know people of obvious African and Native ancestry who don't show it. Some are my relatives.
Maybe you are a little too scientific about it. If they look white they are white, if they look black, they are black etc. Both of my parents are scandinavian, but if someone studied my genes, they might find an Asian or African gene that I didn't know about, and then declare that I am not white after all. Most hispanics look white to me, so in my eyes they are white.
england can be as they wish, nothing to do with America and her predicament, only thing common nowadays is the language. Quit using others as an excuse or reason, there are none.
Thats probably the very same questions that those Native tribes were asking when folks from europe invaded their lands, only your putting on the same shoes they did many moons ago, perhaps you should visit a settlement and ask them yourselve to get a better perspective?
PS, pardon the finger pointing if i mistaken you for something/someone else, hard to tell if you speak for the minority or the current majority.
There's an invisible morale episode to the drama. I think what they also fear is the retribution part, their scared of what could happen to them as minority if and when that happens, i mean, it's bound to happen isnt it? You know, karma and the such. I think "FEAR" itself is the enemy, some people just dont know how to deal with it and end up making it worse than what it is.
Its the white progressives who fear "karma" since they are the one's who obsess over white guilt. They should just kill themselves, then their guilt would be gone.
On a go forward basis future presidential candidates will need a lower percentage of the white vote to get elected. The result is a politician will have to appeal to a broader range of people if they want to be President of the United States or any state wide office where the demographics change significantly.
Once the percentage of White voters falls to 50%, Hispanic voters increases to 30%, Black voters increase to 15% and Asian votes get to 5% you'll see scenarios like this
If a politician can capture 40% of the White vote then he or she has 20% of the overall votes
If a politician can capture 60% of the Hispanic vote he or her will get another 18% of the total vote.
If a politician can get 90% of the Black vote they will have 13.5% of the total vote.
If a politician can get 50% of the Asian vote then they have 2.5% of the vote.
Guess what boys and girls that politician has just gotten 54% of the vote.
Now ask yourself which political party is currently capable of achieving this and which isn't?
This presents the reality if the Republican Party doesn't change they will have a harder and harder time winning Presidential elections and elections in states with changing demographics.
Then you'll have minority groups fighting over an ever-shrinking entitlement pie. It WILL be entertaining.
Sorry, but I have no trouble telling caucasian, from africans or asians. Again, I do not care what sub-category you want to associate them with. When I see a person I know what they are, white, black or asian. There is no need to get too scientific about it. Some of them are mulatto, but my whole point is to say most of them are white, and you can tell by looking at them.
Your point is totally irrelevant if the people you are looking at don't perceive themselves as "White" like you do.
This is mother nature at work here regardless of what us old white guys think. In 100 years nobody is going to give a fiddler's fk what we think. America, love it or leave it and quit complaining that you can't control it.

that's why MORALITY based social issues are so important they are what unites many people from all demographics (except white liberals).
when it comes to fighting against things like same-gender "marriages". Wasp, White Catholics, Jews, Blacks, and Hispanics unite together in one voice.
