white and Hispanic can be one and the same. Some Hispanics claim only Hispanic, some only white, some white and Hispanic. By saying the number applies only to white people who have no Hispanic origin is a bit silly. The number stands.
(b) Hispanics may be of any race, so also are included in applicable race categories
Also ... from the census
The largest growth in the proportion
of the non-Hispanic White
alone population living inside the
largest principal city of a metro
area was seen in Los Angeles (up
1.9 percentage points), Washington
(up 1.8 percentage points), and
San Francisco (up 1.6 percentage
points).
anyway, good luck all of you ....I'm glad this is just a message board and not a place people come for serious information
The City and County of San Francisco is a consolidated city-county, a status it has had since 1856. It is the only such consolidation in California. The mayor is also the county executive and the county board of supervisors acts as the city council

Here is the phone number to the City Government if anybody wants to call and ask themselves:
(415) 701-2311
well....ok. The Census has entries for San Francisco City and County (separately)
but that doesn't really matter at all for the argument, because in that case, SF county/city compared to Chicago (city) there ARE far more white people in SF

funny, but I'd be really interested to know why the census is maintaining separate profiles for each, or if their programs aren't sophisticated enough to have had a separate category for city/county consolidations. It's very odd as their city of SF page has 2010/2012 but the county page has estimates for 2013.

I'd love an explanation for that.
You are complicating this too much. They are the same things and defined by the state of California as both city AND county. Since they exist at two separate geographical levels, both are reported by the Census. It's no different than the Census reporting "Kings County, NY" and "Brooklyn borough, NY." They are the same exact things but reported at two different geographical levels for the same thing.
You can call the Census department up yourself and ask them yourself if you really want: Contacts - About Us - U.S. Census Bureau
