Good example of "Liberal Racism" John. Notice they don't ask your race, they want your "skin color." A way to get around mixed race answers.

You can vote. But first, what's your race? The estimable Jill Stewart reviews the ill-advised legislation the two-house Democratic majority in Sacramento seems to be spewing out. My nominee for the worst:

AB 587, by Mark Ridley-Thomas. A box asking your skin color will now go on voter registration forms. It's voluntary---but expect a move next to make it required.

Stewart reports that Governor Davis "signed this creepy law Wednesday." ... P.S.: On the other hand, the wild Democratic move to subject all development to review by a Native American Heritage Commission (in order to protect "sacred sites") appears to have been stalled, for now. ...
