Is being white a plus in the United States?

The United States favors people who are white including people who are mixed with white. The United States makes things easy for the white person compared to non whites. Also the standard of beauty in the United States is white features. White people are treated better in the United States compared to people who are not white.

I think this would be a wonderful opportunity to pause for a moment and give thanks for the great contributions of the Black community to our society. Their peaceful and generous nature make them ideal neighbors, lending testimony to their exceptional family values and parenting skills unrivaled by any other culture. Their commitment to academic excellence enriches our schools and serves as an example to all who hope to achieve prominence as a people. Real estate values are fueled by the mix of African Americans into an area due to their caring and respectful nature of these communities, an example of all they have achieved through their enthusiasm for self improvement by hard work and a self-reliant can-do nature. And we certainly must not forget their abhorrence for crime and their dedication to observing the law. Without their industrious and creative drive, we would be poorer as a nation.

No it is a downside. Whites are second class citizens in the United States.

In today's America, if you are white, you come dead last in the line for college scholarships, government help. Also you are being discriminated via affirmative action policy of college admission.

Good for the Midwest areas of America, bad for the sun.

The majority of the world is NOT white, so being white is not a plus everywhere you go. The northern hemisphere is the more technologically advanced (first world), and the majority of white people live up there, including those in the USA. The population of the States is about 60% white, so being white is a slight advantage there, but then, there is also sexual and religious discrimination.

being white is a "plus" in most places in this world, never mind just in America.
