The percentage of the U.S. population that is white has been declining for decades and the trend is expected to continue.

Why? Do whites have fewer children?

@gollum,
It has mostly to do with immigration, both legal and illegal. The newcomers to the USA are no longer mainly European; they are mostly either Asian or Spanish-speakers from South and Central America, i.e. mixed-race. And, yes, culturally they tend to breed more children than do Caucasians.
