You know...All of this race BS is really begging for us to be hit again by a terrorist(s)...
Those are the only times I know of that we put aside the color of our skin and call ourselves Americans...
I don’t give a rats what the color of a person skin is in the bigger scheme of things...
If you put the country first, what and who you are is not important...
Amen! Race should not be an issue....
There are political consequences from the rapidly changing demographics taking place at this very momement. The country is being lost while most Americans are unaware of what is happening.
You are living in a dream world--an America of the past. Immigrants account for one in eight U.S. residents, the highest level in 80 years. In 1970 it was one in 21; in 1980 it was one in 16; and in 1990 it was one in 13. In a decade it will be one in 7, the highest in our history and by 2050, it will be one in 5 who are foreign born. The question is whether we can maintain a sense of national identity and shared sense of endeavor with the rapidly changing demographics.
In 1970, 89% of this country was comprised of non-Hispanic whites. By 2042, 72 years later, it will be 50%. Half of the children 5 and under are minorities. By 2023, half of the children 18 and under will be minorites. When you consider that 68% of all blacks are born out of wedlock followed by Hispanics who have a 50% rate and both groups have school drop out rates approaching 50%, you have the social pathology for failure in this country. We are creating a permanent underclass. The current unemployment rate for blacks is 11.1% and Hispanics are at 8.8%.
If immigration continues at current levels, the nations population will increase from 305 million today to 468 million in 2060 a 163 million (56 percent) increase. Immigrants plus their descendents will account for 105 million (63 percent) of the increase. Demography is destiny.
