The only time I see republicans trying to be inclusive is after they get trounced in an election, but their memories are pretty short. I mean just look at the original question. The OP has such little contact with anyone outside their own race that they can honestly wonder if Hispanic Americans don't celebrate the 4th of July. How do you become inclusive when you are isolated from anyone outside your own culture

The Chinese people wanted to become citizens so they could vote.

Mexico has strong laws against mixing the affairs of state with that of the church, with much more popular support for the separation of church and state than the United States.
This has been true since the revolution, in spite of the power, and in opposition often to the wishes of the Roman Catholic church. By the way, I live in an predominately hispanic/asian area here in the city of Los Angeles and they started celebrating the 4th last week. It is a big deal here. |

Same where I live, Pop, where there is a very large Mexican population. In fact, about half of my neighbors are Mexican and we usually all celebrate the 4th together. Not only fireworks but pinatas too!

I think that it will be cool to have whites as a minority! They will get to have affirmative action because they will be an underrepresented group in areas of
employment, education, and business. That will mean promotions even if they are not the best person for the job and help with education and all the cool things that comes with affirmative action. I say, welcome everyone and anybody! Get rid of the reps and let the dems rule, I for one, think that hand outs would be great! |

"They will get to have affirmative action because they will be an underrepresented group in areas of
employment, education, and business." Sure, all we need for that to happen is to be indentured slaves for a few hundred years, blocked from voting for a few hundred years, kept from being able to live in better areas with better schools, lynched a few hundred/thousand times, given syphilis and having it left untreated so we can examine it for medical purposes....can't wait! |

Affirmative action was based on the fact that there was a long history of discrimination, NOT simply because African Americans were "under represented."

There was (is, if you'd rather) a long history of discrimination against Asian Americans in the USA; however, until the ban on affirmative action with respect to college admissions, Asian American students were discriminated against as a result of their disproportionate academic success, as a group.

My answer may be hard for you to swallow, but it is simple to understand. Republicans will be less likely get elected in the future if there are fewer of them every year.

Clearly. However, fewer Republican voters doesn't mean that they're not inclusive.

Tell that to all the disenfranchised minorities who register democratic.

It will be like Cowboys and Indians again, only this time you will be the Indians.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Yes he does have some evidence. His statement is evidence ..... his evidence might be hearsay or something though.

If it is mostly children that make up the population and sway the percentages it is flawed information. By children I mean still in grade school and younger. Because I am sure the polls do not include the children in grade school and lower but may well be included when saying the population is a certain percentage.
