I answered that, and the answer essentially is an Amerindian. Mexican Mestizos look very much Amerindian, as the Amerindian genes are dominant by nature (as proven by George Lopez). Though it's true that Mexican Americans are more on the European side, in Mexico Mestizos are more on the Indian side. The average Mexican Mestizo is 55% Native.
Overall, most Mexicans are a mix of Native American, European, and African

I think by American psyche you mean the "White mentality". As Brown and black Americans don't think that way. So, again, that foolery is not common among minorities, but rather the ignorant segment of the "American" class you are referring to.

In the end though, we are indeed all human and we should just get along.
But at the same time remember that there is racism in Latin America and that it is global and carries over, and white supremacy is global especially depending on contextual situations.

Guess
I can guess but then at the same time that would be like saying "guess what the typical U.S. American looks like".

I can guess what a stereotypical Mexican looks like but even then, all ppl who fit a stereotypical look don't all look exactly alike.

Most people are going by what they see outside of the respective nations of origin. In other words they view or take as fact what they see of Mexicans in the USA as representing what Mexicans are or look like without ever having travelled to Mexico and getting a real true feel of who and what Mexicans are etc.

For example, in the USA, most people might find that most Panamanians in the USA that they tend to meet tend to be "black" looking, even though if you go to Panama, blacks are a minority lol

What are you talking about? No one said Mexicans were Puerto Ricans. YOU DID.

Mexicans on average are a mix of Native Americam, European, and African. On average they tend to have about 5% African.

In some parts of the USA, Mexican immigrants and their descendants have higher levels of Africam such as some areas of Southern California, and some communities in North Carolina and a few areas of NYC

Less than 1% of the Mexican population has any significant African ancestry.

Let's see...
I see Democrats pandering more to Latinos rather than blacks.
They will be the new preffered minority.
Its already happening now.

Off topic,but I think Latinos will be more oppressive and racist toward blacks than whites EVER were.

Also,I think Latinos blend in with the white population,so much that they will just be apart of the different ethnicities of white people(much like Italians in the 20th century). They have high intermarriage rates with whites.

Alst but not least,the Catholic religion.
I think we will see the Protestants influence decrease even more than what it already is.

Do you know what the definition of typical means? It seems you, in your quest to sound politically incorrect, have no idea what it means or refuses to acknowledge every countries' peoples have a typical look. What is the typical look? The look what represents the majority population of the country. So, what does a typical Mexican look like? Since you are having trouble with the concept, the typical Mexican looks like a darkly tanned white man with soft or medium Amerindian features. What you see on TV is nowhere near the majority of the population

The Argentinians are the Hispanics of major income in the USA

An investigation revealed the characteristics of the immigrants who take root in the United States. Argentina, at the head in studies and title deeds.

In spite of forming a part of the smallest Hispanic group, the Argentinians seem to be those of major income between the resident immigrants in the United States, in agreement with a study of the Hispanic Center of Investigations Pew.
In relation with the average revenue for home of the Hispanic community in US$ 39.000, the Argentine citizens get a few US$ 55.000 annual, followed closely for the Spanish, with US$ 53.000, and for Peruvians and Venezuelans, both with annual income of US$ 50.000.
On the other hand, the same study establishes that the immigrant citizens in the United States with fewer income are the from ones Honduras (US$ 31.000) and Dominican Republic (US$ 32.200).
242.000 persons of Argentine heritage in the USA are characterized, according to Pew, for being a majority of owners (53 %), simultaneously that are the Hispanic group with major quantity of academic titles of degree (40 % has reached at least a Bachelor's Degree). Finally, 74 % possesses an advanced managing of the English language.
At the far end, the Honduran population - though almost it trebles the Argentine one - has socioeconomic very different socioeconomic characteristics. Only 23 % is an owner of a housing, at the time that only 8 % possesses a title of degree. Those who dominate the language Englishman do not come to the half of the population who there resides.

There probably exist a correlation between average income and distance from the USA. The farther away a county is, the more expensive it is to migrate from there if we take into account the cost of traveling. So naturally, the high cost will help keep many poorer and less qualified people that in closer countries find it much easier to pay for the journey.
