If you can give me a darn good reason for it, I'm not totally against changing a characters background/gender/race etc., but to do it just for the sake of fullfilling a quota is pandering. I'm Native American, myself.. but if they suddenly had Ariel being portrayed by an indian actress, I wouldn't feel racially incorporated, I'd feel like the casting directors were being condescending and pretentious.

(Haha - That said, I have entirely DIFFERENT reasons for not wanted Pocahontas involved... namely that Disney destroyed the real story with their cheesy sappy love version -__-)
