RE: The words are not an accepted PC minority.
OK, the next question is WHY?
Skin not dark enough? Heck Many Indians have dark skin too.
Our very history with traditional minority preference (quotas, action and preferential emphasis) dictates preference be given to those who cannot compete fairly.
Their whole system of race and "the card" is built around concocting reasons, developing programs and special legislation and compensation for all manner of everyday life's challenges because we are all racists. And, to allow 'Asians' to glom onto that progress just isn't in their cup of tea. That's why.
