In the Military the African American race is considered the majority race?

It probably depends on which service branch that you're in.  For instance, the Air Force is compromised of about 15% Black, 74.5% White, and almost 9% Hispanic.  I am African-American, enlisted AF, have a bachelor's degree (and my research paper away from my MPA).  I don't know if I've seen overt opposition to my pursuit of education, but I will agree that "the system" is not always favorable for minority advancement through education.

Nobody represents the majority of any population.  Do you feel all African Americans should vote for the same person?  Why cant they all look at the issues and have their own opinions without looking at skin color?

I'd say that the majority are mestizo.  The rest are probably mostly of spanish descent with a small amount of other nationalities that have migrated there through the years.

Official figured from the Army on Vietnam service and ethnicity state the following:\n\n88.4% of the men who actually served in Vietnam were Caucasian, 10.6% (275,000) were black; 1% listed as others.\n\nIn the United States, according to the 1970 census, 87 percent of the population was categorized "white", 11.1 percent "black", and 5.9 percent "hispanic."\n\nIt would seem that "white" soldier were overrepresented by about 1 percent, "black soldiers" underrepresented by about .5 percent and hispanic soldiers by about 4 percent.  Of course, one has to assume error in both the census and the Army's tallies, so I would say that the ethnicity of the United States was probably well represented.  The socio-economic status of soliders was not, though.\n\nOther statistics:\n* 86.3% of the men who died in Vietnam were Caucasian (includes Hispanics); 12.5% (7,241) were black; 1.2% belonged to other races.\n* 170,000 Hispanics served in Vietnam; 3,070 (5.2% of total) died there.\n* 86.8% of the men who were killed as a result of hostile action were Caucasian; 12.1%\n (5,711)were black; 1.1% belonged to other races\n\n* 14.6% (1.530) of non-combat deaths were among blacks.\n* 34% of blacks who enlisted volunteered for the combat arms.\n* Overall, blacks suffered 12.5% of the deaths in Vietnam at a time when the percentage of blacks of military age was 13.5% of the total population.\n* Religion of Dead: Protestant--64.4%; Catholic--28.9%; other/none--6.7%. \n\nDisclaimer:taking advice from a person using Bubba as a screen name could be hazardous for your health.

No, the term "African American" only applies to people with black physical features who vote Democrat.\n\nFor instance, if you are only half black, like Barack Obama, but are in the Democrat Party, then you are still "African American."\n\nBut if you are fully black and a Republican, like Michael Steele, then you are an "Oreo" or an "Uncle Tom."\n\nDid that help?\n\n-Aztec276

I am a military service member, I have no race, I bleed the colors of the flag, my blood is the same as all my brothers and sisters. My Combat Uniform and my camouflage hide my visage, and only my soul is known through my eyes, which is the measure of a man/woman, not his/her race or gender. We bleed for all of you who argue about such petty things as this at home. If you really want to support us do us a favor, prick your finger, see the color of your blood observe that it is the same as everyone else's on the planet, then get outside and barbecue for us on memorial day because we can't be there with you to do it. Move on with your life and be grateful that you not only have a race to belong to but that that race has freedoms that aren't regarded in other countries. That's all I have to say.

Judaism is a religion, not a race.\n\nHowever, due to the persecution that has persisted since the time of slavery in Egypt, Jews tend to keep a fairly close community, so many physical traits have become prominent, making people think of them as a separate "race."

Entirely social. Genetically, racial categories don't exist. There is more variation WITHIN groups than there are BETWEEN groups.\n\nAlso, Race and Ethnicity are completely different. Sociorace is how people treat you based on your physical appearance, despite of your language, religion, culture, history, etc.

the fact remains that the Majority hangs on to the word majority which in fact is only a word  which whites make up only 37 % of the nations population the rest are all people of color whether they be chinese,indian , hispanic or what have you. Their is a keeping of the numbers so to speak the last thing is needed is truth

Honestly....It's not. Far less than past history. Problem is most blacks bring up the race card against the whites still. Twenty year old kids no nothing of race discrimination, and have no business claiming they're entitled to money from the government due to slavery. The U.S. government owes blacks nothing anymore. The indians bitch less and whites stole everything from them and wiped out most of the tribes too. Trust me. Discrimination isn't so much these days. If you're white you're white. Act white. If you're black, you're black. And act black. But don't claim anything because of your color.

slavery has impacted the u.s. by former slaves ancesters thinking they are still owed something today. affirmative action is the worst thing we as a country could've done and acknowledging a race which automatically singles one out from the american whole.  African American.  I don't call myself all my nationalities before american.  ex.  german, italian, irish american.  see what i mean.  then to have sepatory groups such as the naacp is bullshit.  african americans have it all going for them today but they're just to caught up in having to have the latest tommy shit (which who is as racist as the come) which shows the stupidity of race as a whole.  come on they recieve higher test scores and get reconized for acccomplishing less than the fellow american.  wake up america time to play cowboys and n........
