LOL @ both NAACP scholarships....
More importantly, Bohannon started this scholarship because non-Hispanic whites have become the minority in TX at 42% of the total population. The population minority means very little because whites are still, and probably always will be, the power majority in Texas and other states. So, a white scholarship isn't the worst idea in the world but it does make me laugh, considering the "we're a minority" angle. That doesn't even get into the fact that the white Hispanics will assimilate into "America whiteness" in about 10-20 years.

42% makes them a plurality, not a minority. (Unless one other group is 43%, which I doubt.) Dude needs to give himself a scholarship so he can take a stats class. Or a sociology class. Or anything.
