However, when these "races" start to surpass the number of those that call themselves White/Caucasian, the isht is really going to hit the fan....!
And the first thing the Caucasians will say when this happens is "I'm getting SICK and TIRED of being hassled by the man."

On a more serious note, however, I read an in-depth article in the Columbus Dispatch a while back that said that in the 2000 Census, a lot of non-white, non-African immigrants who became citizens here filled in the box marked "Caucasion" on the census form because to paraphrase "they know about the oppression of black people here and they didn't want the stigma and the discrimination of being Black in America that they might have otherwise received".

If I find the article I will post it here in its entirety.
