Census shows Asian, Hispanic populations booming
The Hill ^ | 6/25/20 | Reid Wilson

Posted on 06/25/2020 6:05:24 PM PDT by Nero Germanicus

The United States is becoming a far more diverse nation, led by surging growth among those of Asian and Hispanic descent, while stagnating fertility rates slow overall population growth.

A new report from the U.S. Census Bureau shows America's population is 60.1 percent white, the lowest level ever recorded. Among those under 16 years of age, fewer than half are white, a sign that white Americans are having fewer children and doing so later in life.

"The nation is becoming more diverse, especially among the young," said William Frey, a demographer at the Brookings Institution.

But the number of Americans under the age of 25 actually fell over the last decade, driven entirely by lower fertility rates among whites. There are 4.7 million fewer white Americans under the age of 25 today than there were in 2010, and 3.1 million more minorities under the age of 25 than there were nine years ago — an overall decline of almost 1.6 million.

The only age group in which whites are growing as a share of the population is among seniors as the baby boom generation ages into retirement.

The number of senior citizens in America, those over the age of 65, has grown by more than a third since 2010, the Census Bureau said. The median age of an American has grown by more than a full year, to 38.4 years old, over the last decade as people live longer and have fewer children.

Of course conservatism can thrive among all people, it is not necessarily race based. Right?

Here in California some of the worse liberals are snow white snowflakes. Neither they nor their ancestors ever owned slaves, it doesn’t matter. BLM is their 24/7 cause.

Many of them are on the front lines, middle lines and backlines of the BLM thugs because of their phoney white fake guilt.

Many if not most of our priests, pastors, reverends/deacons what/
ever are out marching with the BLM, and basically there are no blacks in their neighborhoods. You ask them what gives, and they go into a BLM mantra.

They and you have never owned a slave, but now only BLM is important. If you don’t join them, you are evil.

All Lives Matter is evil and racist.

Actually it was Richard Nixon who defined Hispanics as a separate groyp.

Good point. The Bushes seem quite happy with erasing the borders, culture and language of the USA. To them and their paymasters, Americans are just units of labor interchangeable with any other person on the planet, and frankly undesirable when they cost too much.

"For the first time in Census 2000, individuals were presented with the option to self-identify with more than one race and this continued with the 2010 Census."

That, and 23andMe might have something to do with it.

“So what you’re saying is mostly wishful thinking.”

It’s utter stupidity by Republicans who refuse to learn from the experience of California.

At its peak in 1930 & 1940, 89.8% of America was White. Today the white population is at an all-time low, 60.1%.


This was done intentionally. We talk trash about leftist/socialist Canada, France and UK for allowing EU to funnel a ton of migrants into their countries over the last 25 years, but guess what? White population in all those places is still over 80%.


Over the last 30 years in the USA though, the white population due to massive illegals and regular immigration from 3rd world has diminished at a faster pace than Western countries in EU. Let that sink in. Once we drop below 50% Rushmore will come down, so will the statue of liberty, and we will become 3rd world. Watch.


The only thing that can stop it is a full stop on all immigration for years. It is what it is. There's still Australia. I always wanted to live there lol

The numbers might also explain the lack of uproar for law and order in the current situation.

Exactly. “What’s happening in the country, why isn’t anyone in power standing up against these rioters and tearing up of US history.”

welp. now you know.

For all practical purposes the GOP abandoned californication after running several totally uninspiring country club type candidates that couldn’t get a randy dancer to a pole. The D’s then took over and rigged the election system there to stay in power.

... while stagnating fertility rates slow overall population growth.
**************************
It’s not the fertility rates. It’s the BIRTH rates!

Many young people have chosen to not have children until they have established a stable relationship and income. They use birth controls until they consider they can properly provide for children.

Abortion mills (PP) are making billions of $$, altogether, killing unborn human babies.

Thank you for correctly using the term “American Indian”.

The term “Native American” applies to everyone born in the USA, even if they are not Natural Born Americans, due to the anchor baby thing.

EX: Kamala Harris is a NA, but not a NBA = ineligible for POTUS, VP or Speaker.

Obama was neither NA or NBA = ineligible for POTUS.

Western civilization can survive socialism. It cannot survive having the people who created Western civilization replaced by people who know nothing of it or despise it.

If you defined "family oriented" as prolific teen pregnancy and having larger litters than their minimum-wage (or non-existent) incomes can support, then yes.
