"There are more Hawaiians living in California than there are in Hawaii."
actually, if you look at the subcategory you will find that while there are more so-called "one race"-"Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander" listed, there are actually far less "one race"- specifically "Native Hawaiians" listed in California than Hawaii.
that being said, the true accuracy of the whole racial demographics taken by the US Census seems suspect in some ways. for one thing, they rely on self-selected racial categorization when taking data (don't try tell me a certain amount of people don't engage in a little wishful simplification, omissions and/or additions). the categories themselves change and morph over time as well.
so in conclusion on the racial demographic thing, whatevers.
