Ethnic Minorities have achieved system and are thus able to determine their societal status the same way as citizens of European descent

This country was originally built on the core values of equality freedom , and justice , for all . if you are White . America has been

facing an upward battle trying to diminish this ideology that has long haunted our country , particularly ethnic minorities .

Loose constructionists on the other hand would argue , no , the system as it provides does not provide electoral equality because , they recognize that the Constitution as it was written in the 18th century , doesn 't solve 21st century realities .
