That's OPINION.

The fact is that major innercities like DC have not become predominatly white, despite an influx of gentrifiers for decades. There are middle class/wealthy, highly-educated Whites and minorities in all of those areas. [b]But that hasn't changed demographics one bit[/b].

DC, quite frankly, is as much of a hell hole as any other innercity. In some ways its worse. DC is definitely not on the path to Manhattan & the other places you've mentioned. You've gotta be trolling me.[/quote]

Here's a personal invitation to visit DC, since it appears to be many years since you've been here.  Demographics are definitely changing, and more than a bit.  I don't know about projections of the city becoming majority white city-wide or why that matters to you, but certainly gentrifying neighborhoods have significantly changing demographics.
See: Dupont Circle, Logan Circle, Mt. Vernon Square, Capitol Hill, Eastern Market, SW Waterfront, Navy Yard / Ballpark, Columbia Heights, Petworth, Shaw, even Brightwood (see WP article)... could go on and on about neighborhoods with changing demographics.[/quote]
