Again a fair point.
Might be interesting to ponder why the ruling races are who they are.
And why the ethnic mix of the most powerful nations is the way it is.

Seing a 'mix' of the most powerful nations I would say they will be neither powerful nor nations in the near future. Only 'vibrant'. :twisted:

is 'vibrant' the same as 'shaky'?

Yes something like that I presume.But in fact I must admit that I'm using BBC phrase and only BBC really knows what does it really mean :wink: :twisted:.

One can look at CNN what's going on in USA now, maybe? :twisted:

From CNN

Quote:
Stunned police had only to sit and watch, as 500,000 protesters hit the streets of L.A. in what turned out to be a perfectly peaceful march Saturday. City police said there were no incidents or arrests. The demonstration was intended to send a message to Congress that its plans for immigration reform -- which target immigrants, employers and even Samaritans -- are not well received. "I've been on the force 38 years and I've never seen a rally this big," said Cmdr. Louis Gray Jr., incident commander for the rally.
That's a pretty damn big protest! I found it interesting that they chose to wave Mexican flags in their new adopted home.

By ethnic mix, I meant all ethnic groups, not just minorities.

Interesting detail, isn't it? Well, if you want to learn a bit more what's behind that, just open 'image.google.com' type in 'Aztlan' a take a closer look at maps you will get.

But anyway, this a bit off topic here and I do not want to hijack this thread with that as I've already opened thread here:

Default UK scores highly in intelligence league

Thank you, Jarda, for that fascinating item from the Times. I notice the headline of the article on the Times web link you kindly provided is "Germans are brainiest (but at least we're smarter than the French)." More or less what I was thinking.

Germany coming top doesn't surprise me one bit - I've NEVER met a stupid German. They have always clearly been intelligent. Germany is, after all, the nationality which invented the wartime rockets. German scientists were quickly grabbed by both American and Russian forces at the end of WW2. These German rocket scientists developed the space programmes of both the USA and the USSR (Russia).

So, we (the UK) get 8th place and France languishes at Number 19 - almost out of the 'Top 20' altogether. France scoring badly is no surprise - after all, their brains are in their underpants aren't they? :twisted:
