>>19291317Mark my words, the definition of "White" will change so that this doesn't happen. This isn't our first rodeo with this sort of thing. Groups which weren't considered White like Italians [(and you should see some of the cartoons about them which were made at the time)](

If I had to bet, we'll see Latinos as a whole reclassified as White sooner or later. **Keep in mind that races in the American context are arbitrary social constructs and can be modified as desired.**
As for why this will happen? American racial dynamics are dominated by the divide/conflict between Whites and Blacks, and plenty of groups have an interest in maintaining that sort of setup. If the day comes that Whites are no longer a majority, the lines will be redrawn so that they will be majority once more.
