Once Dominant Whites Less Optimistic about Future Than Minorities

Blacks and Hispanics more optimistic than whites about economic future

A recent survey conducted by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research showed that attitudes about economic opportunity are diverging along racial lines, the AP says.

In the survey, less than half of white Americans -- 46 percent -- said their family had a good chance at improving their living standard given the way things are in America. In contrast, 71 percent of black respondents, and 73 percent of Hispanic respondents, said they thought their living standard would improve.

Blacks and hispanics think the great give away will go on forever. Whites know it won't and the end is quite near.

From the original article, here

After years of economic attitudes among whites, blacks and Hispanics following similar patterns, whites' confidence in their economic future has plummeted in the last decade, according to the analysis. Blacks and Hispanics, meanwhile, have sustained high levels of optimism despite being hit hard in the recent recession.

I'm glad they have "high levels of optimism despite being hit hard". That is one of the great things about HOPE that the liberal mindset relies upon, one can ignore reality and instead rely upon feelings and emotion. Unfortunately for them, HOPE doesn't put food on the table, a roof over your head or clothes on your back. But it is a good campaign slogan if you want fools to vote for you.

I see that the evening's plans for Race-Baiting and Hate-Mongering are not going very well for the OP so far...

Some blacks and Hispanics think that having a non-white as POTUS is going to solve their problems......or at least they figure that their interests will be addressed.

Boy are they mistaken.

It does seem the depression and anger among whites - personified by the tea party ... has gradually intensified over the last 10 years as the whites have gradually lost their majority to non-white races.

If the election of a black President was a benchmark (and the time when the tea party was formed) I believe this year was the watershed, when the U.S. Census confirmed whites are now a minority.

True, it may only get worse for those whites who find it difficult to accept that they are a minority.

But many will grow and proper.

As did the minorities before them.

19 percent black unemployment, 41 percent black teenage unemployment....all under the first black president. Bill Clinton doesn't count as the first black president.

Why are liberals more interested in color than economic viability?

The reason you have minorities is because as new nationalities immigrated to America they become minority members of American society. The Irish at one time were minorities. Course they came here, for the most part, legally. Which means they also brought a respect for authority with them as well, but a desire for prosperity and freedom. They just wanted a chance. They weren't induced here by Santa Claus Democrats.

Eventually everyone will learn that Democrats aren't trying to strengthen the Middle-class by bringing in new low-wage workers by the millions. They'll realize that Democrats in Washington want to explode the Middle-Class, essentially erase it. When they're done there will only be two classes. Those who have freedom through their personal wealth and those who are living off of government assistance and vote for Democrats out of necessity.

Boy are they mistaken.

Obama is in it for ideology, agenda, party...himself. Nothing else matters.

Thinking of a non white majority doesn't understand that even as a minority, whites will be a majority for generations to come.

Minorities, in the aggregate, will out number whites, but each individual group will still be a fraction. When blacks hear that white will be a minority, they think they will be the majority. That's clearly impossible. Their numbers get smaller every generation. Hispanics think they will be in the majority, Asians think they will be the majority. Actually none of them will. It will still be a white majority.

Minorities don't, but liberals think that all minorities of whatever racial or ethnic persuasion vote for the interests of all minorities. Clearly they don't. Hispanics have absolutely no interest in the betterment of the lives of ordinary black people. Asians are convinced of their own racial superiority over blacks and Hispanics! Even one another. There is no solidarity among minorities.

There are no minorities except those that act sub-human.

What's hilarious is how some white liberals talk about whites becoming a minority as if they weren't white. They actually consider themselves to be out of the equation entirely due to their political leanings.
