What does he have to do...wear a sombrero, eat tacos and listen to mariachi music???
He could tattoo a GS on his neck.
The term is “Uncle Juan”.
Mariachi music is for tourists-we natives listen to a bit of tejano music along with our rock and country, and wear cowboy hats-not a sombrero-but I think everyone eats tacos...

This was never about being Hispanic enough. The truth is about it being progressive enough.
Once you get that, you get it it all!
So what? Cruz doesn’t march for La Raza and that means he’s not Hispanic? What a crock.
LOL
Never heard that one, either, but I’m not much on labels-there was a term-pocho-that I remember hearing my mom and other relatives use when I was a kid, but it was reserved for the people in cities who acted like they were better than ranch folks like us. Haven’t heard it in years...
What party had five (now down to three) old whites as their Presidential candidates? Not the Greens, the Libertarians, the Constitution Party, or the Republicans.
Yeah, and Sarah Palin isn’t a woman. These people are certifiably insane.
That La Raza is a bogus organization based on a bogus premise anyway-Hispanic/Latino is just an ethnic group, not a raza/race-it comes in all colors, just like most others do. If people of German or Italian ancestry started an organization calling themselves a race, liberals would be yelling about Mussolini or Nazis in ten seconds or less.
If Biden had decided to run, THE DEMOCRAT DEBATE would have had SIX OLD WHITE LIBERAL ELITES on stage.
The professor's nuts.
I actually made it up myself and then found out it was a real term...so I didn’t make it up. :P I gather it’s not a super common term.
Well, it is a good one all the same-terms like that tend to originate in whatever Spanish dialect is spoken in an area-Texmex/Norteno is spoken here-it is the same as English in different areas/states, or the French dialects-Cajun in Louisiana, Quebecois in Canada and northern states, etc-someone from Spain or France probably would barely understand a word of their language in the US or Canada...
