An early warning sign: Whites now a minority in 10% of the country

AOL Time Warner just confirmed what everyone can already sense: Whites are now a minority in at least 1 out of every 10 counties in the United States.

In 2006, there were an estimated 100 million minorities in the U.S., about a third of the country's population. The U.S. Census Bureau projects that, by 2050, minorities will account for more than one half of all U.S. residents. In other words, White people could become the new minority in America. Does this revelation give credence to the idea that Whites must take action so that they do not become minorities in the countries they founded? That Whites must act so that their children can find the opportunities the Founding Fathers wanted them to have? That Whites must act so that their culture and heritage can survive?

Some will roll their eyes and say that 9 out of 10 counties are still mostly White; others, that immigrants take jobs people do not want and add muscle that will pay Social Security checks and help the country compete with China pound-for-pound. But future generations of Whites will see things from a different perspective: wondering what could have been.

China has 1.3 billion Chinese, and the Han Chinese constitute about 91.9% of the total population of China; by contrast, Whites from Europe are just 7% of the world population, including Europe. We are the true minority here, folks.

Put yourself in the shoes of your children; picture a young child shuffling through old articles like this one, well on his or her way to understanding why America was full of people who still spoke his or her language and had similar fair features. Inevitably, the child will come across headlines like "Whites a Minority in One in Ten Counties" and wonder why, when printed, the articles did not provoke a response from the folks who read them...
