[quote=Anonymous]OP, per current trend in demographics, Hispanic is an ethnicity, and people can be of many races and nationalities within that. So they can be indigienous Hispanic Peruvian. Or White Hispanic Argentinian. Also the trend is to SELF identify, not to impose some kind of logically or scientifically correct definition. So since nobody, as far as I am aware, is interested in calling themselves "Mestizo" it's a moot point. I also agree with other posters that you're trying to create a "Hispanic - White" category and a "Mestizo - all nonwhites" category, which is problematic. [/quote]
