My sentiment. I guess the reason I don't a reason to worry about is because my own ethnic group is in the minority and always has been. Just my perspective.

The part that bothers me is that Hispanics in this country come from poorer backgrounds and lower education. This results in more children growing up in poverty and being a burden in this country. Just today I read an article about Hispanic women having an average of 3 children. That's fine if you're able to raise them but so many rely on government assistance it's ridiculous how they keep having children. Not only that but so many Hispanics are in this country illegally or because of a parent or grandparent that came here illegally.

So it's basically..hey, we came into this country illegally, had a lot of children we couldn't really afford and now were the majority.

You're basically going to have a different race have the majority in this country that already have poverty rates that exceed the national average.

I'm more conservative. I don't want national health care, I don't want the government in my life more than it already is. Hispanics tend to be more liberal and vote Democrat like most minorities. This country will become a lot more liberal in the policies when Hispanics are the majority because they already are in favor of most of those policies.

I don't have a problem with another race becoming the majority in this country but it does bother me that the race that will become the majority is a race that has high poverty rates, came into this country illegally and have a high % of people in prison.

What if Asians became the majority? Well, high test scores, % of Asians in prison is lower as well as poverty. Things would look more promising IMO.

A little knowledge of history may help . First off euopeans purchased this land from the Spanish and French . Indians never owned land because they didn't believe in private ownership so actually they thought they owned the whole world if you get technical about it ,anywhere they were or traveled to was theres .

We came to a undeveloped wilderness, not so for the immigrants today . What you and I enjoy is a product of europeans and black slaves that were sold by their black slave masters who were slaves for the muslims who invaded Africa .

Bet you won't hear this in any of the universities or see it in any of the racist Alex Haley mosty ficticious movies .

I don't know who started this "we are all immigrants" statement but they are wrong, wrong, wrong. I have native American blood, but I also have other non-immigrant ancestors. An immigrant is a person who moves to a country after it is formed. All people who are born in this country are not immigrants. People who lived here when the country was formed are not immigrants either. They are the founding fathers and I believe my other ancestors belong in that group. If you don't believe me, look the word "immigrant" up in the dictionary.

I tried to quote the person who made that statement in one of the first posts on this thread, but it would not let me quote the poster.

As for the white American status, I really don't care. I wish we could all forget the race thing and all just be American except for the illegals. They need to go home.

You do realize that Hispanics will be the majority because of all the illegal immigration. How many more black, asian and white people would we have in this country if we let our doors open to everybody. I hear stories all the time of people from European countries trying to come to the US but are not allowed to stay permanently.

Then that would be White America's fault, yes...?

Or maybe it will just be another Africa, Iran, Indonisia ,China or Mexico !

I think you will notice alright . Most minorirties are voting themselves right back into poverty and bondage because of racial hate and blame directed on only one group .

Correct, white American has controlled the laws since the birth of this nation.

My point was just to let the poster know that while they seem to not have a problem with the reality of Hispanics being the majority the reason they are going to be the majority is because of the illegal immigration over the last several decades. Which they seem to be against.

I don't see how you can be against current illegal immigration and not be some what disappointed that the switch in the majority in this country is due to illegal immigration.

If black Americans became the majority in this country I would not have a problem. Why? Because they didn't come over here illegally. So my attentions have nothing to do with racism, simply doing the right thing and obeying the laws.

Humans always shatter boundaries. You can't stop us.
