Majority to Minority???

Minorities may play a major role in future of the American society. After reading Sam Roberts articles titled “In a Generation, Minorities May Be the U.S. Majority” and “A Nation of None and All of the Above.” Both of these articles gave me serious questions regarding the recent minority shift in the U.S. According to the first article the minorities will soon grow to rival the white majority, which sits at about 79%. But the other article says that the shift may only lead a drop in the white majority from 79 to 74 percent. Which, in the long run, does not seem to be that big a deal. But in my opinion, there needs to be a change in the way minorities are counted. Take for example, the Spanish Americans. There are numerous illegal immigrants in this country. That is a fact. But the kids they have are counted in the census as U.S. citizens. I believe there should be a law requiring them to apply for citizenship, or even be deported back to their parents native country. But there is still a problem about how to get rid of illegal immigrants before this problem grows to large. At the moment we are doing little to cope with this issue.
Now let me shift a little to the legal immigrants that enter this country. As most Americans know, there is no better place than this country. Which is why we should allow immigrants to continue to come as much as possible. Why, because America was founded on immigrants. Look at the founding fathers for example, all of them are just transplanted Englishmen. America was and will always be a safe haven for those who share its ideals. Which is why we should allow immigrants from all over to keep coming and why we should help the illegal immigrants become citizens.
