WASHINGTON – For the first time, America's racial and ethnic minorities now make up about half of the under-5 age group, the government said Thursday. It's a historic shift that shows how young people are at the forefront of sweeping changes by race and class.

The new census estimates, a snapshot of the U.S. population as of July 2012, comes a year after the Census Bureau reported that whites had fallen to a minority among babies. Fueled by immigration and high rates of birth, particularly among Hispanics, racial and ethnic minorities are now growing more rapidly in numbers than whites.

Based on current rates of growth, whites in the under-5 group are expected to tip to a minority this year or next, Thomas Mesenbourg, the Census Bureau's acting director, said.

Correction Nick.

You don’t WANT to see it as a racial issue.

If you think we will be fine as a minority white nation then God help you son.

I find that quite odd... they refuse to classify Hispanics as Caucasian. Some are mixed with Asian and Black... blended... but also “white”, as is my beautiful white blue eyed quarter black nephew..... Maybe there will come a time when the color of your skin will not make much of a difference. This will never happen under a Democrap administration.

Well, first of all, the way they are tracking isn't even accounting "white people" accurately.

But, what do you want to do? If "white people" don't want to have children, what do you propose to do?

Have you ever met an illegal? I have yet to meet one from Mexico that is Catholic. They are Evangelical or Jehovah’s Witness.

That is patently the most ridiculous pronouncement I have ever read here

And if you believe that then you are wholly ignorant

Have I ever met an illegal?

I live in Nashville proper...they are likely 10% of our population and the only thing keeping Catholic parishes in attendance on Sunday. My neighbor stopped going to the local church here in Franklin because it's turned into a latino congregation>

Catholic clergy here caters to them...illegal or not...

How many kids white women allow themselves to have has nothing to do with how we handle illegals
