[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 661478, member: 4386"] Fair question. That is the way it is in Australia but not in countries like the USA. And it has very limited basis in science (genetics). It is one thing that confuses me with "Voice from the heart" and inclusion in the constitution. Since by the Australian definition, most Australians will have indigenous ancestry by 2100 (albeit mostly tiny), a system devised to give a voice to a small minority will become a system giving a special voice to the majority with time. But since you have to have both more than 50% of Australians and more than 50% of States voting yes, it would become increasingly difficult to ever remove the change. It needs more discussion n that it seems to be getting. [/QUOTE]
