If Hispanics are White than why do they qualify for affirmative action programs/ college scholarships geared towards racial minorities ?
Dude their white as far as crime stats because there is no "Brown" box to check on the form. Would it make you feel better if they were considered black?
This Hispanic woman in Florida for example is wanted for parental abduction and she is labeled as White under race.

Great thread. Obama only got 67% of the Hispanic vote this time around I am sure you will help get it up to 90% and increase his electorate base overall.

Hmmmm because Duh according to the census bureau Hispanic is not a race but related to ancestoral birth.
Hispanic Population of the United States (http://www.census.gov/population/www/socdemo/hispanic/hispdef.html - broken link)
Persons of Hispanic origin were identified by a question that asked for self-identification of the person's origin or descent. Respondents were asked to select their origin (and the origin of other household members) from a "flash card" listing ethnic origins. Persons of Hispanic origin, in particular, were those who indicated that their origin was Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or some other Hispanic origin. It should be noted that persons of Hispanic origin may be of any race.
Do people bother to check before they start threads so they are accurate and not wrong in their OP supposed fact?

Even though that Hispanic woman was labeled as White, she would stick out like a sore thumb if you dropped her off in a crowd of North Dakotans for example. Are you going to deny this ?
