Jeffrey Shaw Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Hispanics are generally conservative people anyway. They only vote democrat because of the free money. How come 'hispanics' are not seen as 'white' in the USA (because they're assuredly not 'black')? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFKvsNixon Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 How come 'hispanics' are not seen as 'white' in the USA (because they're assuredly not 'black')? Maybe it's the same reason that Asian people here in the UK aren't seen as being white? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Asians have skin that is more-or-less brown. Hispanics have skin that is more-or-less white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geared Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 How come 'hispanics' are not seen as 'white' in the USA (because they're assuredly not 'black')? Because everything is not just black and white in the US. Unless it suits them of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFKvsNixon Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 No. Asians have skin that is more-or-less brown. Hispanics have skin that is more-or-less white. I don't think that there is much difference with some Asians and Hispanics. Here are a couple: Salma Hayek and Amrita Rao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harleyman Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 How come 'hispanics' are not seen as 'white' in the USA (because they're assuredly not 'black')? There is a space on the census form marked "White Hispanic" That could mean people of white and hispanic heritage Mexicans can range from full blooded Native American Indian to mixed European-Indian blood and even to direct Spanish, German, English or Irish descent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
