3 out of 4 voters will remain white

I see the problem is that the Dems start with a 25% of the electorate lock. Of the remaining 75%, they only need to capture one third. Combine young people, union members, liberal moonbats, etc and that number isn't difficult to hit.

You are correct. Our district’s elementary schools are 80% Hispanic. The population overall is less than 50% Hispanic. The anchor babies will sink us. Think it cannot happen in your town? Think again.

Not here. Here the latino population is hovering around 2%. That dosen’t stop the Church from having mariachi music and spanish sermons, or the local schools from forcing spanish in first grade.

Ted might not have been so wrong if “modern” whites had not contracepted and aborted their babies and if they had not bought in to Zero Population Growth.

Some folks...hate the truth.

We’re homeschooling our children. I’m not about to allow my children to be indoctrinated by some left-wing fascist, open-borders, multi-cultural, perverted, muzzie-loving zealots.

You weren’t wrong then or now.

It would be interesting to see how many children in total are home schooled or somehow outside the US public school system. I bet that population is overwhelmingly white.

My daughter, whose two older daughters went to a nearby public school for grammar school, was told by a teacher with whom she has remained friends not to even consider enrolling her 13 month old in preschool at that school because it is now Spanish only and English is a second language there. Also, the students were tested at the beginning of the year and at the end of the year to be sure that the teachers were meeting the standards set forth. Now they are being told that they are not to set the standards as high so more students can pass. We live in an area that has some Section 8 scattered throughout the school district, and the Spanish population has grown quite a bit.

non-Hispanic Whites

As being of partial Basque ancestry I guess I would be considered Hispanic White.

Seems like bad writing to me—reading the sentence as written, only half of the minority students are accounted for.

I think the progressives teach how a class on it. It's purposeful and deceptive. Then when you call them on it. They will just say oh well it's poorly written.

“I warned this over and over here 10-14 years ago and got zotted as a racist. Was I wrong?”

I remember it well and you weren’t wrong.
