For Caucasian's are from the Caucasus mountains,
African's are from Africa.
Mexican's are from Mexico.
Chinese are from China and so forth and so on..
Please comment truthfully.

Mexican is a nationality not a race. If you want to refer to Mexicans by race they are mostly Mestizos (mixed race of usually indio and white from their Spanish ancestors). There's your truth.

A Caucasian, if you look up the word in one of those handy things called a dictionary, is "white-skinned person of European origin." Their ancestry is from a much broader area of Europe than just the Caucasus Mountain area.

Not it isn't. Since there is no country called "Caucasia". I have to wonder how old you are not to know the difference between race and nationality.

Mexicans are not a single race. Some of them are white, some of them are pure blooded Mesoamerican, most of them are mixed in varying degrees. It would be the equivalent to saying Americans or Canadians are a "race".

It doesn't matter how big the region is. Is still a place, and it doesn't matter what you name it. Still a nationality. And there for Caucasian is not a race. And if you keep reading down some more on the dictionary it will show you that Caucasian's can have brown skin ,, so probably mixed race.

Who Cares and I resent any who tries to Justify Illegal Immigrations to the USA. This thread will lead into a bleeding heart thread how the US and Mexico are some how related!
