Minority babies outnumber whites among US infants
McClatchyDC ^ | June 23, 2016 | Teresa Welsh

White babies are now outnumbered by minority babies, according to new population estimates from the Census Bureau.

In 2015, racial and ethnic minorities made up 50.2 percent of babies under a year old. That year, there were 1,995,102 minority babies born, just slightly more than the 1,982,936 white babies born.

The 2015 data was released Thursday, as was updated data for previous years. These new figures show that in 2013, minority babies also outnumbered non-Hispanic white babies by about 1,000 births. In 2014, white babies were outnumbered by about 16,000.

Original data from 2011 showed that white babies were in the minority, but those figures were revised in 2013 to show that the white infants were still the majority. But the new information released Thursday shows that the original figures were in fact correct, and minority births outpaced white ones.

The US Supreme Court has ruled that a person is any gender or race they “feel” that they are, so I always mark myself as a gay black female.

We do try to prevent it and if Hillary gets elected, we should stop that. Democrats want poison. We should help them to fill their cups and ancourage them to drink deeply. I will be.

Plain old whites outnumbered by blacks, definite “latino” wetbacks (not simply white or black; more “Indian”) and Moslems (Arabs).

Time for Dems to celebrate as they have been just announcing this likelihood!

White middle class families can’t afford kids. Illegals and welfare cases can’t afford not to have them.

Precisely, using that definition the Palin kids, Heather Locklear and Raquel Welch are all not white.

More to the point, who's gonna pay for all those gummint cheese checks when all us crusty old farts kick? Someone has to work to pay for it. And they're incapable.

It was GWB, unfortunately.

The only entities who really "enjoy" passing out pain/punishment serve some useful purpose, I suppose, tormenting their fellows in hell. Don't worry about distributing the suffering. There will be plenty to go around.

They also count "white Hispanics" as minority --- a truly bogus term I first heard as applied to poor George Zimmerman. This is nonsense. Many, many lighter-colored people of whatever race--- Mesoamerican, Arab/Middle Eastern, Asian--- especially (but not only) if they have some Euro in the mix, consider themselves "white." And that goes for Latinos especially.

Does anybody really think of Joan Baez or Martin Sheen, or Salma Hayek or Penelope Cruz, or Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio, as part of a "non-white minority"?
