New information released by the Census Bureau shows that baby boomers are not the most populous generation for the first time in decades, and that white babies are outnumbered by minorities for the first time in the history of the census.
Millennials now form a quarter of the US population at approximately 83.1 million people, dethroning the baby boomers who number at 75 million, largely due to rising death numbers for baby boomers as the oldest members of this group approach 70 years of age.
By the Bureau’s definition, anyone who was born between 1946 and 1964 is considered a baby boomer, and anyone whose birthday falls between 1982 and the new millennium is – you guessed it – millennial.

They’re
I was born in 1983. Am I a millennial or a X?
millennial - "anyone whose birthday falls between 1982 and the new millennium is – you guessed it – millennial."
Thankfully I’ll be dead before we reach full third world status.
I believe you’re spot-on.
Ted Kennedy was at best a coward. At worst he was a murderer.
It speaks volumes of the character (or lack thereof) of those who elected this “man” year after year.
Who do you think paid for those “Minorities” to have those baby’s?The White middle class working slob.
When your paying for the children of other people how can you afford a large family of your own?
That sums up exactly what is shaping our political landscape: People with no economic future (no skills for a modern economy) demanding that people with no genetic future (working people without offspring) pay for all of their goods and services. Because the birthrate has more of an impact at the ballot box, the former are clearly winning. People that study and work hard to get a job will simply be taxed to death providing for those who couldn’t be bothered - the old “makers versus takers”, but the makers aren’t breeding.
What was the name of the people who were in the 40’s during the 60’s? That’s probably what I was aiming at.
That’s ok. I he/she wants to be Trans-GenX they can be so!
Why focus on Ted? Look at the people who elected him over and over again, despite knowing what kind of man he was. You’re completely right.
We get the government we deserve. We often laugh at the Israelites complaining in the desert and longing for the good old days of slavery in Egypt. But that’s us, today.
The makers breed late, because education and taxes delay their ability to afford a family, IMHO.
Agreed! Mentioned the “Swimmer” because the Immigration and Reform act of 1965(???) was his baby. Yeah, Congress passed it but ole Teddy had nefarious reasons for authoring the bill.
He thought the US was too Anglo-Saxon and wanted to change that. His plan worked.
The data is cooked. Obuma and his commie buddies moved Census to White House control right after Buckwheat was crowned chief.
I have noticed that the boomers are starting to die off.
Except that it wasn’t Ted Kennedy, it was JFK, then Bobby, then it finally fell on Ted’s shoulders to fulfill JFK’s dream to destroy America.
It takes voters to destroy America.
John F. Kennedy had a dream to replace the American people with foreign voters, a different kind of voter, the importation of an endless supply of democrat voters.
“However, if there is one man who can take the most credit for the 1965 act, it is John F. Kennedy. Kennedy seems to have inherited the resentment his father Joseph felt as an outsider in Boston’s WASP aristocracy. He voted against the McCarran-Walter Act of 1952, and supported various refugee acts throughout the 1950s.
In 1958 he wrote a book, A Nation of Immigrants, which attacked the quota system as illogical and without purpose, and the book served as Kennedy’s blueprint for immigration reform after he became president in 1960. In the summer of 1963, Kennedy sent Congress a proposal calling for the elimination of the national origins quota system. He wanted immigrants admitted on the basis of family reunification and needed skills, without regard to national origin.
After his assassination in November, his brother Robert took up the cause of immigration reform, calling it JFK’s legacy. In the forward to a revised edition of A Nation of Immigrants, issued in 1964 to gain support for the new law, he wrote, “I know of no cause which President Kennedy championed more warmly than the improvement of our immigration policies.” Sold as a memorial to JFK, there was very little opposition to what became known as the Immigration Act of 1965.”
Perhaps the “Forgotten Generation.” They served during the Korean War and up to the early Vietnam era. They were “Forgotten” between the “Greatest Generation” and the goddam Baby Boomers. GenX would probably be their counterpart.
Oops. It’s the “Silent Generation” as a poster above noted. I remember my dad being surprised a little perturbed upon hearing this name used for him and his generation.
Maybe JFK was just getting bored with white sluts and wanted a little more variety.
Some breed late; I work with plenty that never bothered to do so at all (and now it is too late).
