I don't think you read that prediction correctly.

Its more like that by 2050, non-Hispanic Whites will no longer be the majority in the US (whites will be under 50% of the pop for the first time).

Its true that Hispanics are the fastest rising ethnicity, but nowhere near a majority by 2050...more like doubling from the current 12% to about 25%.

The Asian population in the US is expected to double during that period as well.

But should that be a basis for immigration?
