According to the 2005 CIA World Fact (an official statistics agency), America racial composition is:\n\n    * White\n          o 81.7%, or 241 million (includes those who declared themselves as white-Hispanics; those of Middle Eastern and North African descent; and others who checked "Some other race".)\n          o 69%, or 204 million (excludes white-Hispanics, but includes Middle Easterners, North Africans, and others who checked "Some other race".)\n    * Black or African American 12.9% or 36.4 million,\n    * Asian 4.2% or 11.9 million,\n    * American Indian 1.4% or 4.1 million,which includes those of mixed race or more than race in addition to Native Americans\n    * Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander 0.2%\n    * Two or more races 2.4%\n\nThe Census Bureau considers Hispanic to be any person with national origins in Latin America or Spain (ie. Spaniards, Cubans, Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, etc.), and thus may be of any race.\n\nThe American population is therefore only around 60% pure White European(180 million people).\n\n    * Hispanics of any race 14.1%, or 41.3 million.\n\nBy ethnicity, Hispanics comprise 14% of the American population, surpassing African Americans as America's largest de facto ethnic minority.\n\nThe Census Bureau's definition of "white" is not necessarily the definition most widely held by Americans in general. Most Americans define "white" to exclude all Hispanics, even those of exclusive or predominanty European descent. Using that definition, the white proportion of the U.S. population is currently at 69.1% or even much less if we take into account the important amount of them who define themselves as white being actually of mixed ancestry.\n\nOf course, by the same definition, the numbers for each of the other races would be reduced if one were to take into account the important amounts of each group who define themselve as mixed ancestry rather than solely African American, Asian American or Native American.

That depends on what you re calling a minority? \n\nThe ethic minority as of the year 2000 was 31% none White.\nThe religious minority as of the  2000 was 20% none Christian\nThe lingual minority is 3% none English speaking as of the 2000 census.\nAs for sexuality, that's a hard one to pin down, I have seen statistics that show less then 1% of Americans are exclusively homosexual while 4% or bi and then I have seen statistics showing that 5.9% are homosexual while 6.1% to as high as 18.1% are bisexual. \n\nMy question in return is who cares? The facts are then within a few decades, those that are in the Majority, the White Anglo-Saxon, Heterosexual Christians will no longer be the majority. Some think this is bad thing. Some think this is a good thing. I think it was inevitable and was predicted by the past, just as many events have been. Just look at it this way, a long, long time ago, the Anglos hated the Saxons and there was war. Today, we call the people from that area of the world, Anglo-Saxons.  Why? Because they stopped fighting. Is that a bad thing? No! It's the way of the world. \n\nSo long as people are not hurting other people I don’t care what they do, who they love or what their race, creed, color or preferences are. People are people and they ALL deserve compassion and the chance to be respected. \n\nI hope this helps.

The middle class is dwindling and the lower class in growing. The rich are getting richer and more powerful and controlling. There are 300 million American's now. The vast majority are white, we have a growing population of Hispanic (that includes those from all Latin America) and that has resulted in people saying we have a "browning of America" taking place. The largest age group is still the Baby Boomer generation, that's mine, who were born in the late 40's through early 60's. We are also the biggest consumers.

I live in Hawaii, and I believe it to be the most racially diverse place in America.  At least 80% of the people here are at least part Asian, and most of us are more than one nationalities.

I hope you realize that all blacks aren't African-american.  Maybe you should rethink the question and ask how many blacks are in the U.S. today.  Hmm.
