Hispanics outnumber blacks in the U.S. and is growing at very fast clip ... the clout, abeit limited, of blacks in the political realm is rapidly dropping ... politicians these days, by and large, in regards to race/ethnic groups, are focusing much more on hispanics than blacks.

To digress a bit ... it's no accident that border enforcement is a joke much like how speed enforcement is - sure they catch a few offenders, but the system is setup to ignore most violations / maintain status quo - hispanics, as a group, are an important part of the economy - they tend to be family oriented, and very hard working.

Personally, BET has always bothered me ... if there's going to be a BET, I agree there should be a WET or whatever ...

But what bothers me much more is Black History month (February) ... why is there no White History month? -anyways, it seems to me August should be designated White History month ... and Indians should have a designated month too, and Hispanics, etc too.
