How is it that all 4 of my Grandparents were considered non-white, but I'm considered white?

6. My point is that during this time of thinking that we will become a Majority-Minority nation

we don't even know what a minority is. Latinos and Hispanics may be considered non-white now, but considered Caucasian 20 years from now, just like Italians. The point I'm making is how silly it is to even consider race as how American a person is.

let me give you an example. I worked as a union rep on passing a casino bill in Massachusetts. All the interested parties formed a coalition for passage of a bill. Among the participants were indigenous tribes in the state. About 20 people were gathered around a table and during our lunch break the conversation veered off into immigration. Different points of view were exchanged and voices became raised. The Native American political director for one of the tribes, who, until this point, remained silent, slammed his hand on the wooded table, making a very loud sound. Getting everyone's attention, he stated in a loud and convincing voice, "let's get something straight. As far as I'm concerned all you assholes are illegal immigrants".

That's my point.
