Again, no Mitt is not Hispanic! Hispanic is a culture and Mitt does not practice the Hispanic culture. He was born here and grew up in the U.S. His father was not Hispanic culturally either even though he was born in Mexico. Neither Mitt nor his immediate family had any Spanish roots. Their family had German roots. You are again confusing nationality with culture. The two aren't necessarily mutally inclusive.

Some Hispanics have NO "Spanish" in their families and some people of Spanish family ain't Hispanic.
