For the first time, racial minorities now represent more than half of the children born in the U.S.,
according to new census figures.
African-Americans, Hispanics and other minorities made up 50.4 percent of U.S. births in the year
ending July 2011, accounting for 2.02 million births, up from 37 percent in 1990, according to The Associated Press.

philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

That's not good for the gay marriage crowd.  Two groups that do not support it.

When you have to PAY for each child you have, you tend to limit the number

TBird, are you suggesting that minorities receive more welfare payments than whites???
Of course you know that isn't true.

No, what I'm saying is ( and your liberal heros have statistics to back it up) there are more whites in the middle class and upper class than minorities. AND, even though whites are the largest number on assistance, as a percentage of their race , they have the lowest percentage on assistance of all racial groups.  So, the majority of whites are getting no gubment assistance, therefore they actually have to be both fiscally and personally responsible.

Views of Black Voters Changing on Gay Marriage...
A new Public Policy Polling survey in North Carolina finds "a noticeable shift" in the attitudes of African Americans toward rights for gay couples.

Key finding: "Our final poll before the primary last week found only 20% of black voters in the state favoring gay
marriage, with 63% opposed. Now 27% express support for gay marriage with 59% opposed, for an overall
11 point shift on the margin."

An 11 point shift in less than a month? I bet has nothing to do the the first mixed race black gay president "changing" his view (again)

when WIC becomes MIC let me know....because ALL the minorities and majorities use 'the system'....the system of help is for women....so I see it more of a chromosome
issue than an ethnic issue....

SHOW ME THE $$ TRAIL....

here, let me explain it, the Y chromosome is pushed to support the X chromosome....and when the Y is lacking they make a system to 'fix it'....those of the X
chromosome need to stop talking about doweries, baby daddy and such....they need to realize they are humans NOT feral cats popping a litter out just because
they can. what a nice little controlled cast system built into our pseudo, democratic, republic of socialism.....

the elected base their campaigning on the need to procreate (in the background) using ethnicity as a veil.....

what a joke

can the Y chromosome readily get welfare or WIC ?


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.


STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS

"The NAACP Constitution affirmatively states our objective to ensure the 'political, education, social and
economic equality' of all people. Therefore, the NAACP has opposed and will continue to oppose any
national, state, local policy or legislative initiative that seeks to codify discrimination or hatred into the
law or to remove the Constitutional rights of LGBT citizens.
We support marriage equality consistent with equal protection under the law provided under the Fourteenth
Amendment of the United States Constitution. Further, we strongly affirm the religious freedoms of all people
as protected by the First Amendment."
