Well, I thought 'hispanics' were white... stupid me... When did 'hispanic' become a race? How is someone from Spain racially different than someone from Portugal or France?
I happened to see a box of Wheaties the other day. It had a picture of Roberto Clemente on the front, with the words "First Hispanic inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame." I always thought that Roberto was Black. Silly me!

I think this started with the Clinton administration. I first noticed it then. They do some really goofy things wtih race quotas on federal applications, etc. Mixing up ethnicity with race for example.
Actually, hispanics can be any color, I guess they aredefined by language (Spanish). Doesn't matter. It's all about breaking us into groups so we can vie for a piece of the pie (which the politicians steal from taxpayers and buy votes with).
