What percentage of your libertarian party is coloured?

100%

Avoiding the question I think.

Yes and no.  "Coloured" (sic: colored <g>) is a really poor term that isn't
particularly used in America.  It carries the implication that europeans are

But in the sense that you meant it, precious few.  I have noted several
times (and specifically within this string) that the overwhelming majority
of Libertarians are white males - I have met several hundred people who have
identified themselves as Libertarians and they have been 100% white males,
though there are undoubtedly some that are not.  When you consider the vast
diversity of ethnicity in SoCal, that's a telling statement.
