Does anyone have a link showing the racial makeup

[proud2BlibKansan]

of elected politicians in the US? A few weeks ago (after Dean's speech) someone posted a link to the racial makeup of elected Repubs to elected Dems. I searched but couldn't find it.

[whistle]

1. There is NO RACIAL PROFILING in the U.S. Congress....

...and in fact the republican elected officials are a rainbow of racial diversity as anyone can see by just looking at them. See? No racial imbalance among republicans.:hide:

2. LOL

I remember a thread and someone posted a link that showed that 95+% of elected Repubs were white. The Dems were more like 80%. I tried googling it but got nowhere. And I searched here.

[whistle]

3. The racists in this country just drive themselves nuts over the idea

...that whites at some point will no longer be the majority. That will be fine with me because wherever crowds of whites are gathered, it generally smells like wet chickens:

Description of Table 2.

This table shows for the United States the population indicating one race and the population indicating
two or more races. The latter is grouped into the population indicating exactly two races and the population
indicating three or more races. In addition the table shows the population in each of the 15 specific
combinations of two races. The population indicating two races includes the vast majority of the
population indicating two or more races.


In addition to the 15 combinations of two races (for example, “Asian and Black or African American”), there are 20 combinations of three races (for example, “American Indian and Alaska Native and Asian and Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander”), 15 combinations of four races, 6 combinations of five races, and 1 combination of six races. The redistricting files for states include data for the population in each of these 57 combinations of two or more races.
