That may not be that meaningful, at all.


The Hispanic and Asian vote may be meaningless by that point in time, if the immigrants from those areas are able to successfully merge into the general population. At the time of WWII, WASP's were an important ethnic group but have basically merged socially into the general white population since then. There is good reason to think that most 2060 Hispanics won't know Spanish and will only have a symbolic presence in East LA or Spanish Harlem.

Had similar predictions been made in most eastern cities in 1920, most would have projected that Italians or Eastern Europeans would 'dominate' the country in 1965.

Tagged as Anglo White? The vast majority of Hispanics in the U.S look nothing like Anglo Saxons of British ancestry because most Hispanics are Mixed Race Triracials of African, Spanish, and Amerindian ancestry.




Saying Spanish speaking Brown Amerindian/Mestizos can racially become WASPs is like saying men can genetically become women and can become capable of getting pregnant.

Making predictions about what will happen fifty years from now is a fool's game, but if I had to guess:

5) will white people still hold political powers ?
6) what states will still have a white majority ?
7) will the USA still be the most powerful nation in the world ?
1) Probably not. More technologically advanced for sure.
2) Assuming I don't die in a car crash, probably so.
3) More annoying internet memes, for sure.
4) Uh, like today's USA?
5) Yes. I don't see many people clamoring to take away the right to vote and hold elected office from whites.
6) Not sure. Alaska? Vermont? New Hampshire? Maine? Minnesota? Iowa?
7) Possibly. The question is, will the world become more multipolar by then?

Ever notice the lack of blond haired children in urban inner city schools that are predominantly Hispanic. Predominantly Hispanic urban inner city schools in cities like New York City and Los Angeles is just a sea of all black hair.

But if you go to a predominantly Gringo school whether private or public, you see a lot of blond haired children.

Look at how many blond children you see in this predominantly Gringo WASP elementary school.

Compare that to this Mexican elementary school where all of the kids have black hair.
