Another stupid statistic, I can tell you in Canada people don't want to live beside Indians. Alot of Indians like to move to areas inhabited by Italians, my Italian friends simply hate this. Alot of "white" people have also moved out into the countryside.

I don't see how Canada and America can be blue.

Two reasons why a country appears blue, even though it's misleading :

1. It would be too politically incorrect to tell an interviewer that they don't want to live next to somebody of a different race. Of course they DON'T want, they just don't want to tell somebody who asks them kinda out of the blue. (IE: Svenskastan, Norwaystan and the USA)

2. In some countries, they don't like other races, BUT, they don't mind having one living nearby. They are curious about how the minorities behave and if they behave badly, they are not afraid of stopping the alien in the middle of the street and give them an earful or a punch soup (This is Russia's case).

Honestly, take a black man from the ghetto versus suburbia and the cultural differences are stark.

I try not to let it bug me, but honestly I would rather live put up with thug life blacks than a bunch of granola eating liberal pussies.

Try living in Ithaca NY. That place is annoying as hell.

That differentiation of ghetto blacks vs non-ghetto blacks only applies to a few REAL liberal West Coast states and libertarian Mountain/Desert states. The rest of the country sees all blacks as thugs and trash, no matter how affluent or educated they are. In fact, most of the so-called liberal states in the Northeast tend to discriminate more towards non-stereotypical blacks due to the perceived competition and challenge of racial prejudice, hence the mentality of many liberals that would rather deal with a gang of thuggin and swaggin black trash rather than one educated black person.
