And I am 1% “Iberian Peninsula”! As in Spain or Portugal. Does that make me Hispanic?

I think to be Hispanic one has to have ancestors with mixed Spanish/native(Mexican etc) blood. Direct to Spain is Spanish.
One set of my grandparents were Spanish, the other French. Not a single Spanish ancestor from Mexico or S.A.but, since my last name is common in Mexico some presume my family is Hispanic. Extensive genealogy done shows NO ancestors came from Mexico and no direct bloodlines to the Spaniards who colonized it.

I always wonder if I could claim immigrant benefits IF I could speak the language and act accordingly.LOL
