One of the many persistent lies we hear from the Left is that whites are no longer the majority of America. Citing a US Census report, the New York Times said the latest Census showed that just over 50% of Americans under 1 year old are non-white.
This was an example of the liberal media disregarding the truth to write a story that fits its narrative. The Census Bureau is not the definitive source of data about the race of babies born in America. That role is filled by the National Center For Health Statistics (NCHS).
The NCHS reports something very different. It says that 54.4% of babies born in the latest reporting period were non- Hispanic whites. Moreover, rather than slipping toward the tipping point that would cause delight in America’s newsrooms, the trend of births since 2008 has been more white births than non-white births.
In the years from 2009 to 2011, black births have held just about even, Hispanic births have dropped almost 1 ½ percentage points, and white births have climbed by 1 percent.
Why would this be?
The Gutmacher Institute, a group known for its love of death through abortions, offers this data that explains the growing gap between white and non-white births.
“Non-Hispanic black and Hispanic women have higher rates of abortion (40 and 29 per 1,000 women aged 15–44, respectively) than non-Hispanic white women do (12 per 1,000). The higher rates reflect the fact that black and Hispanic women have high unintended pregnancy rates (91 and 82 per 1,000 women, respectively), compared with non-Hispanic white women (36 per 1,000 women).” The rate at which non-white women kill their babies is three times higher than the rate at which white women kill their babies.
Given the amount of economic and other kinds of damage Barack Obama is doing to blacks and Hispanics, there is little reason to think they will start to reproduce at a rate that will bring their races to a majority in our country anytime soon. Does this make much of a difference? In the short run, the answer is no. In the long run, however, it is certainly yes. If we are ever going to turn things around, we need more wagon pullers and fewer wagon sitters.

Huuummm. What is a white person. To me Black and White are attitudes. Not race.
Then you have not filled out any kind of a government form lately!
You are right. I have not filled out any government forms lately. But any forms I have filled out during the last 50 years have always had a box to check or a place where you state your race. All I am saying is to me and only me I am caucasian that is my race. BTW, can you tell me what is a white man?
Unfortunately you are incorrect there is only one race the human race. Skin color eye shape are not separate human races but only characteristics of some members.
Look it up in a real science source and you will find this is true.
Wow, what a concept look up in a real science source. So I did. Looks like we were both wrong.

Any decent lab can determine with certainty the race of any individual by simple DNA scan. Is the info encoded on DNA meaningless? Tell your kids not to bring this up in science class or they’l be sent to study hall with the Creationists.
Unfortunately you are incorrect there is only one race the human race. Skin color eye shape are not separate human races but only characteristics of some members.
The preceding two posts are perfect examples of the mindless babble that more often than not finds its way into these forums. And what’s a “decent” lab? Is that to be contrasted with an indecent lab? And what do “Creationists” have to do with any of this?
These are undisputed facts: Obama is of mixed racial parentage though his biological sire is almost certainly not Barack Hussein Obama Sr. His closest and most trusted WH advisor is Valerie Bowman Jarrett who like Obama is also of mixed racial parentage. Susan Rice is also of mixed racial parentage. Both Jarrett and Rice are heavily connected to Iran. Is there an underlying riddle in this obvious pattern boys and girls? If so, pray tell us what it is.
They underlying riddle is simple smoki…how can you see the forest through the trees?? What shows in public is a miniscule amount compared to to iceburg that waits to be brought to the surface!
I think it is time we stopped checking boxes. If we are citizens of this Country, we are all Americans. Most people are a mixture anyway. We all have the same rights and freedoms. Does it matter so much what color our skin is? We are all human. If we are truly non racist, it would not matter at all what one race does. We are all equal. All should be proud of one’s own heritage, whatever it is. Just by being born in this age means our ancestors came a long way and fought wars, diseases, slavery, slaughter, and a number of terrible stress and trials for us to be living here today. It is a miracle we got through it and any humans are alive today. We should all stand at the bottom of our flag salute look up and be proud of who we are. Color does not matter.
Not by Mr. Obummer’s standards….he wants to have those boxes checked off so he can call all the blacks in for a job first. I’ve been thru that routine. I agree, we should stop checking the boxes. We are americans, but not to Obummer and the blacks….they go by skin color.
What I think we need to get rid of are things that depict specific races, genders and special interest groups. We have a constitution that states “All men (citizens) are created equal” and we have laws such as EOE and so on. However, we have government constantly coming up with specific laws granting certain groups of people special rights and/or privileges above and beyond other citizens. Affirmative action needs to be gone because it is designed for a select group of people and not all people. Programs and laws that depict a certain race or gender or any special interest group such as Black college fund intended solely for a specific race or such programs such as women’s business loans and such. Programs that include a specific gender or race are discriminate of other races and genders by their nature which displays that in America, not all people are created equal.
Illegal hispanics / (non-residents) going to college in some states are granted “in State” tuition fees, while the law abiding foreign student that follows the rules and regulations to come to America and get an education is charged a huge tuition as well as the American citizen that resides in another State but attends a college or university in a different state. Though the “out of State” tuition is not as high as the foreign student tuition. Why should illegal hispanics be granted or for a lack of better words “rewarded” special tuitions based on their race and the fact that they broke the law.
This administration and the Democrats in general are always speaking words such as “equal” and “fair share”, yet they are the ones always introducing bills and pushing laws that target or represent a select specific group and not intended for all peoples.

‘American’ is a nationality. Anyone can become one. But no one can change their DNA.
God created the races. Mankind created nationalities.
Bobmann, though there is obvious truth in your analysis, attitudes are always acquired during formative years rather than at birth. History has proven this to be the seed of hope of the oppressed in both war and peace while inherent greed of the oppressors only fuels the fires of the oppressed to also themselves become oppressors. Can leadership from such roots ever be expected to produce widespread prosperity with sources fatally diminished by unlimited parasites?
Selfish neurotics struggle to neither accept help nor give it except to further their own concealed greed and the malady is passed from one generation to the next as is that of their victims. Ridding society of such jealous covetousness can only be remedied when charity. is both accepted and respected. Charity can never be born from taxation under duress encouraged by a complicit media that has only experienced the rewards of investment totally without sweat equity.
Even edited history with omission of facts demonstrates that greed respects no boundary either by race, national heritage or guise of exemplary example. How else could the abject leadership failure of George Custer at the Little Bighorn be historically preferred to his record highest loss of any Union cavalry volunteer brigade at Gettysburg? His brash attitude enforced by his continuous quest for attention had previously earned him the position of “bottom of the class” at West Point. Could his vain quest for glory ever polish a tarnished image of his superior at Mount Rushmore when the man behind the image was likewise vastly outnumbered by both dissenting inferiors and experienced politicians out for revenge? Does death always need be the termination of both greed and revenge as experienced by both? If continued rising firearms and ammo sales is indication of intent the future holds little suspense.
I understand what you are saying, but what has the got to do with MY comments?
