If you ever just pick a judicial candidate randomly at the polling place-- I mean who really knows one from the other, right-- I hope that after you read this, you'll never do it again. On page 7 of the Los Angeles "Official Sample Ballot" for next Tuesday's primary is a race for Judge of the Superior Court (Office number 125). The contest hasn't gotten any publicity. But I want you to read this: “No person shall be a citizen of the United States unless he is a non-Hispanic white of the European race, in whom there is no ascertainable trace of Negro blood, nor more than one-eighth Mongolian, Asian, Asia Minor, Middle Eastern, Semitic, Near Eastern, American Indian, Malay or other non-European or non-white blood, provided that Hispanic whites, defined as anyone with an Hispanic ancestor, may be citizens if, in addition to meeting the aforesaid ascertainable trace and percentage tests, they are in appearance indistinguishable from Americans whose ancestral home is in the British Isles or Northwestern Europe. Only citizens shall have the right and privilege to reside permanently in the United States.”

1. holy crap

That's terrifying -- thanks for the heads up.

I'm 1/4 Native American so I guess I'd be a non-citizen. (They'd have a hard time finding ANY southerner that isn't at least 1/8th.) And I'm related to two founding fathers.

3. Yup- not sure how he would deal with that

My bloodline goes back to Plymouth- They almost all still all live in Plymouth/Kingston.

My great grandmother was Native American. I believe she was Blackfoot.
