That is private conduct that would exist whether progressive policies are in place or not. The OP asked about government policy.[/quote]

What does it matter?

A progressive policy focuses on finding common ground to solidarize.

Are you more likely to meet that outcome in a society that heterogeneous or homogeneous?

And yes, it boils down to human nature.

omg, people
What happened to basic Psyc and Soc 101?

So the melting pot is a myth. [/quote]

:(  it kind of feels like it.

I think that's why people started to throw out the 'salad bowl' metaphor.

yes, ideally i think progressives would love both a vibrant/hetergeneous/race/background-blind society that comes together over progressive ideals -

however my question is: if the progressive agenda can be enacted easier on a national basis with a certain population mix, is said pop. mix worth pursuing over the progressive ideal of heterogeneity?

Which is more important for the direction of the country. This is not meant to be racist - i wanted to measure the priorities of progressives.  [/quote]

It may feel like it to you, but history says that the melting pot is a huge success.

And liberals aren't pursuing a population mix, any more than conservatives are trying to prevent it.  Conservatives aren't actually trying to prevent the growth of minorities in America, are they?  If so, please put that in your platform so that everyone who agrees with you can vote for it, and so that those who disagree can be adequately warned.[/quote]
