And who is the federal government? White liberals. More to the point it was the federal courts (white liberals in the 9th circuit) that nullified prop 187. It was Governor Gray Davis and A.G. Bill Lockyer (white liberals) that dropped the case instead of pushing it up to the Supreme Court (2 White conservatives, 1 Black conservative, 3 white liberals, and 3 white I-don't-know-what-they-are).
Look bro, you can call the federal government what ever you wish, white liberal, conservative, etc, but it is neither. All thay are concerned about is control and power. And that's exactly what they have, is control and power.
It's got to the point where voting is like a token to the peasants. They are going to do what the hell they want no matter who gets elected. We are all witnesses to this and California Proposition 187 stands as stark reminder of this.
