The Dems have a hierarchy of victimhood. They rank groups by the political mileage they can get out of their caste. Richardson is one of the best candidates running in 2008, but his Latino-victim status is a distant third behind Hilary's woman-victimhood and Obama's black-victimhood.
Yes, if current immigration and birth trends continue, Hispanics will one day become the largest ethnic group in America, though it will be a long time before they become the majority. But as long as they stay second class citizens in the Dem Party, it's unlikely a Hispanic will sit in the White House.

The U.S. Constitution calls for an American born president. So, even if a person has an hispanic heritage, it does not matter. They would be an American first, because they would have been born on U.S. soil.

Richardson is Hispanic and is likely to get the VP spot, and maybe the nomination in 2016.

How about answering you with a question and a comment?
What's wrong with it if he or she is a good person there to serve the nation, and what's good about it if the president is like you have now?
How about having "one race, human race" as a motto, then the question becomes superfluous.

soon enough. its only a matter of time. it all depends on this election as well with obama running and if he will open the door to the idea of a non white president.
