Jamelle Bouie on the fallacy of the USA becoming "majority-minority"

[Kevin]

I think an example of the future of America would be people like Barack Obama or George Zimmerman(for a lack of a better example). People who may appear to be "non-white" but are basically culturally "white".

I mean it's already a fallacy imo to point to a future U.S. as being a non-white majority. Ex. many "white" Americans already have mixed ancestries. Case in point-Elizabeth Warren who has Native American ancestry.

While even in the U.S. and other new world countries like Canada and Australia many if not most entirely European descended people can count multiple ethnicities among their lineage.

For instance, my great-great grandparents from what I know only married those of the same ethnicity(German or Irish). While my grandparents intermarried with those of different European ethnicities. My German descended grandfather married my grandmother who is mainly of British descent.  While on my other side my Irish grandfather married my Dutch grandmother.

So imo this isn't a really radical change at all. Esp. considering that past immigrants like Germans, Poles, and Italians were regarded in the same ways as Hispanics are today.
