IMPORTING THE SUPERIOR CULTURE:

More than half of California children Latino, census shows (Carol Morello and Dan Balz, 3/09/11, Washington Post)

More than half the children in California are Latinos, according to new census statistics that show the nation's most populous state rapidly approaching the day when Hispanics overtake whites as the largest minority.

Barely one in four Californians under age 18 are non-Hispanic whites, who declined in number along with black children as the number of Asian American and Hispanic children soared. Because of differing birth rates and migration patterns, the total number of children remained relatively stagnant.
