Thread: Multiracial pupils to be counted in a new way

More people will list themselves as bi-racial on the next census because Obama being bi-racial makes it the new in thing to do. They might have to put multi-racial on the census so that Tiger Woods and others can list all of their racial make up.

Maybe they want to put us where we fit neatly. luckily I live where I'm suppose to! The North East. LOL

I was wondering the same thing......guess I'm OK, it's Canada area for me.

Actually almost half of Americans are "bi-racial" and not just the few like Obama and Tiger Woods. Most "black" Americans have some white and/or Indian blood, 20% of "white" Americans have some Indian blood, most "Native Americans" are not full blooded, most Latinos are of course mixed, add it up and that't half of the population. My position is if the majority are multi-racial, then what is the point of even having those stupid race boxes, except as a means to divide us to gain politican power.
