First off, add my voice to that comment. It might not be much, but it's got to be worth something.

Second, even though I identified myself as "Latin American" before I won't say I'm "Hispanic". I'm most definetly White as my great grand parents came from Poland (actually, one of them from the border between Russia and Poland if I'm not mistaken but it's about the same thing).

(Warning, this might be slightly off-topic, be advised... and advise me if I should edit it out)
I was just thinking, and if anyone can enlighten me I'd be greatly pelased, aren't hispanic people descendent from the native people that fell under the Spanish crown? and if so, wouldn't the difference between Native Americans in North America and Hispanic people in central and south america be cultural rather than "racial"?
