Rising Hispanic Population Transforming Texas

Recently released data from the 2010 U.S. census shows significant growth in the nation's Hispanic population. And nowhere has that growth been more dramatic than in the southwestern state of Texas, the state with the biggest overall population increase during the past decade. As VOA's Greg Flakus reports from Houston, Texas, experts say the demographic shifts pose a challenge for the state and that its future prosperity will depend on how Texas meets that challenge.

@powerman103

If we sell Texas to China along with all the Texans that infest the place we could pay off our national debt AND our debt to China, as well as raise the average IQ of the country.

I freaking love texas. One of the best states in this country. I don't care if in the future that 90 percent or more will be hispanic as long as I have the right to buy a gun like always and bear arms my right. Texas is fine with me. Texas women are so hot and they have some of the best women in the world. I'm moving to kansas but I will visit texas because my cousin lives there.

Bloody Mexicans, not only are they taking back Texas by expanding their population but taking the businesses and financial future of The North East and South Florida's Non-Mexican Hispanic groups. If anything I can understand Mexivan Inmigrants (legal or Illegal) taking back the Southwest the U.S. stole from Mexico at least. But, stay out of the rest of the country, please.
