Whether you describe it as the dawning of a post-racial age or just the end of white America, were approaching a profound demographic tipping point. According to an August 2008 report by the U.S. Census Bureau, those groups currently categorized as racial minoritiesblacks and Hispanics, East Asians and South Asianswill account for a majority of the U.S. population by the year 2042. Among Americans under the age of 18, this shift is projected to take place in 2023, which means that every child born in the United States from here on out will belong to the first post-white generation.

Explain that over the top cheap shot to the Mods.
trumandogz is not a bad sort he just gets sorta carried away with this sorta thing
i don;t know how to get all conservatives to get really honest about this reality
You’d never do it... That’s why I believe %75 of them are merely keyboard conservatives...
As an American, I was offended by that comment since I understand that all people born in the United States no matter what their race of ethnicity are Americans.
It is not a crazy idea that is just held by me but rather what is written in the 14th Amendment.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
Yes, they are.....especially among poor minorities targeted by Planned “Parenthood.”
“If future Americans hold true to the values of the Founders, the color of their skin will be irrelevant.”
They won’t. Because it is.
Relevant, that is.

“Hispanic isnt a race, its a language group”
The folks of La Raza feel differently....

Gee, didn't I just point out that outside of the European origins countries, that sorta thing is um, pretty rare?
You don't have to make this an academic exercise. It would be as simple as moving to, say, the charming country of Burkina Faso; a place on its um, 4th or 5th coup de etat in about 40 years. Beats elections, right? Freedom and liberty, right?
If you can't handle the jack for the moving fees to Equatorial Africa, why not try South Central L.A. as I mentioned previously? Most of the people there didn't bother to check in with Customs on their way into the U.S. - they wanted the freedom to go where they wanted, and so they took the liberty!
You may find someone freedom and liberty loving in Cudahy, for example. Don't worry, with their demographics, you won't have to do a political vetting on any white folks....they aren't there. At least not us "non-hispanic" whites as we are now disparagingly referred to by the people in the government we created...allegedly for our selves.
See how easy that was? Lots of non-white freedom and liberty loving people all over the planet. All ya gotta do is leave the land of limp wristed Caucasian commies and move to the land of vibrancy! Then vibrate with the locals....and it'll be just like living in Ike's America, right? The Real Americans, we just never knew it.
Let me know how it comes out. If the locals start treating you as an outsider - based on your race and ethnicity - because um, you're a serious minority, don't be shocked. That's pretty much the way humans act. But don't hold back - explain to them that you love them for their freedom and liberty loving ways, and I'm positive they'll immediately accept you and enfranchise you.
Absolutely positive.
This hysteria about Latinos is very misplaced. Yes, I have lived in Latino communities in New York, Chicago, and Miami, btw.
Trust me, blacks have more to lose in the new order than I do.
Then again, poltical movements are dynamic and forever changing. Maybe the future conservative movement will be more secular, thereby attracting more upscale suburbanites for a larger majority of white votes. Lets not forget the relatively high rate of intermarriage among third and greater generation Mexican Americans. There will always be a "right" and a "left", but the definitions will change with the times and the demographics.
As it stands, the current form of conservatism is way too populist, way too interventionist on foreign policy (in terms of neoWilsonian crusades) and way too muddled on economic policy. Prefer Coolidge Republicanism myself, but we are no longer in the 1920s.
Its gotten to the point where the best I can do is "mind my business" and "retreat" to my family and friends.
Except you wouldn’t have a problem with Visigoths seeing as they were white.
Oh, now we’re all a bunch of gang members. Smooth. Should I post a picture of the KKK hanging minorities?
There behavior is more sad than anything. It disappoints me to see such racial hostility from people identifying themselves as conservatives. This is one of the major problems we face in the Republican party. We must not allow the bad apples to ruin the whole bunch or we will alienate minorities and forever be out of power.
That is a disgusting lie and you know it.
If the GOP had not been so wishy-washy and even downright hostile in its conviction to fair immigration reform, more Hispanics would have voted Republican. Learned anything yet?
You insult all real conservatives with that statement. Conservatism, like America itself, is founded on ideas not blood. Maybe National Socialism is more to your liking.
Your ignorance is showing through. “La Raza” means “The People”. Perhaps you should learn Spanish before spouting off about our language.
It is relevant only to the ignorant and immoral.
“If the GOP had not been so wishy-washy and even downright hostile in its conviction to fair immigration reform, more Hispanics would have voted Republican. Learned anything yet?”
Yep, I learned something. I learned from your post that we’re supposed to pander to “hispanics” and illegals in order to get them to vote for our side.
I especially liked these words “downright hostile in its conviction to fair immigration reform”
Fair immigration reform?
It simply does.
If you don't think whites becoming a minority here will change that then you are hopelessly naive or ill informed or both.
Two months ago 57 percent of whites voted for McPalin, usually enough to ensure a winner but not this time due to minority turnout.
Latinos voted almost 80% for Obama even though conventional wisdom was that latinos liked blacks about like La Eme loves the Crips....wrong.
Blacks voted 96% for the Messiah.
Orientals voted majority for Obama too ...62%
even Asians like sub continent Indians went for Obama and folks think as small business owners they might be more conservative.
Used to be the only non Europeans thought to be pretty conservative were Christian Arabs but given the lumping all Arabs thing together I wouldn't be surprised if that has changed.
How Japanese voted is anyone’s guess.....I'd like to think they acted in good sense but then again they are racist like me right?
The only latinos I've found historically that vote conservative are well to do South American expats and Cubans, both groups which tend to more European heritage than most latino subgroups. Coincidence?
You can grumble about the obvious all you want but unless blacks and latinos turn their voting history on it's ear and find Jesus metaphorically you can kiss American conservatism, values, common heritage and tradition good bye when whites are relegated to a minority status which btw is precisely what much of this vote was....getback at the white power structure combined with nauseatingly weak white guilt and btw again a sentiment shared by more than a few freepers including some minority themselves and some peckerwood sissies too.
So there, I'm off the bus dear, ya’ll can have it.
Mark my words, nothing good will come of this and my descendants will have to fight the battle one day. It may take a while but given time whites do eventually nut up.
I don't care how many screwed up crackers folks can drag up to qualify that whites are “bad too”, the facts remain, whites vote conservative exponentially more than minorities by and large.
It ain't complicated.
