Minority population increases by one

From Fox News in Austin, TX:
George P. Bush, wife have baby boy 
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Texas land commissioner candidate George P. Bush has become a father. 
Spokesman Trey Newton said Bush and his wife Amanda had their first child, a boy named Prescott Walker Bush, Monday afternoon. 
Bush is son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and grandson of former President George H.W. Bush. Another former president, George W. Bush, is his uncle. 
Newtown said the baby is a third generation Texan and joked that "George P. looks forward to his son carrying on his tradition of playing baseball for the Rice Owls." 
A Spanish-speaking attorney and consultant based in Fort Worth, Bush is considered a rising star among conservative Hispanics.

So, in 18 years, Prescott Walker Bush can check the "Hispanic" box on his Rice application.

Anyone can check whatever they want. There's no standard of measurement.

I wonder if I should have had my sons adopted from Romania when they were teenagers identify themselves as hispanic. What would they have qualified for?

I hope you're wrong about that. If our race gets our sh*t together, we'll end their minority privilege.

I haven't seen a pic of the baby but George P. Bush looks just as mestizo as your middle-to-lower class Mexican.

Can't the Bush family think up any boy names besides "George", "Walker", and "Prescott". Why not an "Ernesto Bush" or a "Carlos Bush"?

Never seen a picture of the guy, but just looked him up on Google image search. He's certainly quite dark, but definitely doesn't look mestizo in either facial features or body. He's lean and tall.

And his facial features are quite European. If I were to pass him randomly on the street I would assume he was Northern Indian, Iranian or even Sicilian before mestizo.

Somehow I doubt that this child will ever have problems getting into any university, regardless of the ethnicity chosen on the application

I thought you'd just chosen a bad photo of him. But I did a GIS, and there's something odd about his face. He would be a good looking guy except there's something really weird going on with his eyes.

I just went with the portrait on GPB's Wikipedia page.

GPB looks about as mestizo as George Hamilton.

A lot of people assume that the 1-drop rule applies for getting minority cash & prizes, but it's not quite that simple.

Generally Hispanic scholarships require you to be at least 50% Hispanic. Example here:
http://www.ilponline.org/documents/META%20Application%20w_%20Description%202012.pdf

And even in the court of public opinion/electoral politics, just 25% Hispanic ancestry and an Anglo surname might be pushing it a little.

"Dr. Dre Unveils Incoherent College Degree in "Disruption""

http://valleywag.gawker.com/dr-dre-unveils-incoherent-college-degree-in-disruptio-511036952

"Former rapper turned headphone mogul Andre Young and longtime business partner Jimmy Iovine just gave USC a $70 million donation. New library? Field hockey sticks? Way better! The duo are creating an undergrad degree program that tosses together nearly every Silicon Valley buzzword, simultaneously.

Officially named the (deep breath) USC Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation (or USCJIAYAATBI), this program sure looks more ambitious than your English degree:

The focus is on invention and conceptual thinking, drawing on the talents and influences of leaders from across industries to empower the next generation of disruptive inventors and professional thought leaders across a multitude of global industries."

George P. Bush looks like he could be related to Obama.

Son of Brock Landers said...

George P. Bush looks less mestizo in recent photos compared to the Wikipedia pic. Prescott Walker Bush will most likely resemble those Latin American multi-generational leaders who look like Scott Baio but speak fluent Spanish. Still, he'll have minority authenticity.

"So, in 18 years, Prescott Walker Bush can check the "Hispanic" box on his Rice application."

The Bushes could have done the thing that's currently fashionable among "Hispanics" and "Latinos" whose ancestry is primarily European, and named him something like "Quetzalcoatl P. Bush", or "Moctezuma" George Prescott Bush. But like the holdovers from the old ruling class Connecticut WASPs that they are, they named him after the family's historical patriarch.

The first, trendy option would have signaled that they're cynical, power mad hacks who know the lay of the current political land and are intent on gaming the system.

The second, traditional option shows that even in our post-WASP era, the Bushes are still too high on the totem pole to stoop to such crass measures. The kid will, no doubt, check "Latino" on every box as he goes through life, but his name alone will pull rank on all his social-climbing, nouveaux riche classmates at Andover and New Haven (where he'll matriculate instead of Rice).

Plus, "George Bush IV" probably isn't such a great option these days.

Who looks dumber: George P. Bush, or Marco Rubio? (Apologies to iSteve and all the Rice alums around here.)

Come to think of it, who looks dumber: George P. Bush, or George W. Bush?

My son will be checking the hispanic box on his Rice application in four years. I consider myself white even though I do have some Spanish ancestry via Mexico. Once my son found out it would be to his advantage however, he said he would be checking hispanic on all his tests and applications. I told him that technically it is not lying. I have my grandmother's death certificate showing she was born in Mexico and had a Spanish name.

Most people in Mexifornia would NOT mistake George P. Bush for being a Non Hispanic.

George P. Bush is certainly no Sara Paxton for example, when it comes to being so extremely White looking that everybody is shocked to find out that person is half Hispanic.

If George P. Bush was an actor in Hollywood, he would NEVER be cast in Anglo roles. Because he simply does not look physically White enough to play such roles.

I have seen some Quadroons that look Whiter than George P. Bush. Like the Quadroon actor Tom Sizemore for example.

In California that may be true, but not in Michigan. I know a guy who claimed he was hispanic because his stepfather was hispanic. UM Ann Arbor law school bought it.

The minority population increases by one any time anyone of any race has a baby in Texas.

I remember explaining to a newspaper girl circa 2004 that there was no way SMU could increase the number of minorities in its student body. It was already 100%. Her response: "I had no idea."

Yeah, it's been 9 or 10 years already that Whites were a minority in Texas.

There's no such thing as 50% Hispanic.

Even if it were lying, it wouldn't be wrong. White people have no moral duty to accede to anti-White discrimination.

Is there an algorithm the Bushes use to name their newborn boys, or do they just write the last names of their ancestors on little pieces of paper, fold them up, shake them in a cup, and pick a few randomly?

Funny you say Romanian. Romanians in my experience take great offense in referred to as East European but prefer to think of themselves as Southern Europe due to their Latin derived language
It is rather close to Spanish and many Romanians feel great affinity for Spain,another Romanized Ibero Celtic people, than Italy

Anyway his eyes are less creepy that those of Laura Bush. Seriously her peepers freak me out!

So does Spain finally now have its revenge over England for losing its New World dominions?
When you have WASP elites such as the Prescott Bush family go out of their way to get volunatarily Hispanicized, you might as well call it quits

Considering the changes in college athletics, who says that Rice University will still have a baseball team in 18 years.

The five big conferences are on a path to leave the NCAA and form their own athletic association so that they do not have to share any money with schools like Rice. Thus, there is a good chance that Rice University will drop its athletic department and all of its intercollegiate sports before P.W. Bush is old enough to attend Rice.

I've seen pics of his mom. She looks mostly like a Mediterranean European. She's actually much lighter skinned than George P. is in his photo.

See:

My hunch is that he spends a lot of time in a tanning salon because he thinks it will help his political career to look more "Mexican". Also, note the 5 o'clock shadow. Another way of making himself look dark?

It sounds too cynical and shameless, but this is the Bush family after all.

Greetings Steve Sailer. I'll tell you how it works in Central and South America:

Most people in Central/South America, being Hispanic or Latino (I say Latino because Portuguese-speaking Brazilians aren't Hispanic/Spanish-speakers), are Mestizos.

Meaning "Mixed". Mestizo literally means mixed in Spanish or Portuguese.

The Spanish and Portuguese colonizers, the Conquistadores, brought Amerindian female slaves and a couple of black female slaves (not a lot of black women though, just a couple).

They mixed with those Indigenous Native American women and made half-breeds a lot of. Half-Indian and Half-European (South European/Mediterranean in particular). These mixed people are the predominant population with Hispanics or Latinos.

Then came even more European (Southern, Central and Eastern Europeans), plus Asians (whether Middle Eastern or East Asian) and these waves of immigration "lightened up" and made the population around 20-30% European. The rest (like 70-80%) are mixed.

Since a Latino is typically around 50-60% white, if they mix with a white person, their recessive European genes can come out quite nicely.

That's the thing I noticed. And what I would recommend to white men who expatriate, leave Europe and go to other continents or nations.

Go for Latinos (50-60% European) or Asian women (East Asian types but a couple of Middle Eastern types aren't bad looking, the problem is their Islamic religion).

We haven't had a Hispanic president yet, but we also haven't had a cross-eyed one either. Looking at the array of Google images, George P. looks cross-eyed and slightly moronic in about a third of them. How's that going to go over during the debates?

Anonymous said...

No, George P. Bush looks about as mestizo as you can get.

Andrew Riegle said...

"I consider myself white even though I do have some Spanish ancestry via Mexico."

Are you unfamiliar with what "even though" means or do you think Spaniards are "non-white"?

Mr. Anon said...

"Spokesman Trey Newton said Bush and his wife Amanda had their first child, a boy named Prescott Walker Bush, Monday afternoon."

That explains the ominous chanting in latin which seemed to come from everywhere that was heard across the nation yesterday.

Well, Mexicans now have a higher unemployment in the US now Mexico In fact LA Mexicans have an unemployment of `12 percent versus 6 percent in Tj but Mexicans like to live off of the US system and if they are employed the wages are higher.

The mixture is stronger in Central and South America because the Conquistadores didn't bring their own women with them, unlike English speaking colonizers.

The Anglos brought women with them to the Americas.

The Spanish and the Portuguese were mostly, predominantly male (if not all male). Due to lack of women with them, they mixed and have sex with Native Indigenous Indian women as a second or third resort.

That was the first wave of mixture.

That literally miscegenated the entire native Indian population.

And then came more European immigrants or explorers after them and after the slave trade was abolished.

European or Asian Men from Portugal, Italy, Spain, Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Israel, Lebanon, Japan, Taiwan and other countries never stopped coming. They came over to Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and so forth.

Heck, even some poor white South Afrikaneer males came over and left children here.

The average mixed person (the average Hispanic or Latino) is 50-60% white.

The average white person in Latin America? About 80-100% white. No joke.

I have a theory that white percentage of blood in white Latinos is so high because the population as already 50% white at least and so each white person that arrived, made certain segments of the population even more European, both the blood and the appearance.

With the new "Bush baby" Mrs George P. Bush was smart enough to put her legal career on the back burner in order to partially insure she does not die in a future small plane crash, so her widow could marry an Eva Longoria or even Selena Gomez( yes a tad young, but mas macho, no?) and cash in on both the Latino and sympathy vote. Also unlike Ann Boleyn, Mrs "P" was lucky enough to have a boy.

Well, liberal media cracks me up. The elite of the Republican Party supports the gang of 8 proposal and so does R Murloch of Fox news but you read a liberal thread its like Fox news is opposed isnce they mention some conservatives that opposed it. The liberal media doesn't mention that lots of Democratics are opposed and lots of rich Republicans like George P and company support it or if don't a massed legalization with lots of guestworkers.

Let's! - that application would exclude a lot of Hispanics, as it requires either one parent or two grandparents to have been born outside the U.S.

Anyway, the Supreme Court ruled, a while back, that Louisiana and Mississippi's definition of "black" was unconstitutional, therefore, there is no legally enforceable definition of black. I'd assume the same about Hispanic.

Van Nostrand - in 2006, I was in Spain, and went into a post office in Cordoba. There was a big freestanding cardboard ad for Western Union for wiring money, and it was entirely in Romanian.

They have rationalized all his other foolish schemes and still praise him as a brilliant politician. I agree, not certain why Nixon did that unless he felt guilty about how Mexicans were treated in LA/OC before 1950 where they had separate schools for them. La had Mexican schools from white kids in the olden days. Today, they are more likely anchor babies as we say, so AA for Hispanics is worst.
