I'm surprised Frankie Muniz (Puerto Rican Father), Christina Aguleria (Ecuadorian Father), Bob Vila (Cuban Parents), DelToro (That guy who directed "Pan's Labryinth") (Mexican), and Cameron Diaz (Cuban Father) weren't on that list!

I already knew that most of those celebs were Hispanic. Archuleta is a Spanish surname and it is common in some parts of the U.S. I knew about Alexis Bledel being Hispanic because talked about several back in an interview. I thought that list was pretty dumb in many ways, because being Hispanic is an ethnicity and not a race.

Yes, and it usually refers to people who are Spanish or from Spain because the original name for Spain was Hispana.

Many Ethnic Groups from Europe came to The Western Hemisphere as well as African and Asian Countries. You have African Descent People in Cuba, Chinese Descent in Peru, Arabian Descent in Central America, Italian Descent in Chile, Polish Descent in Brazil, and German Descent in Argentina.

I can go on, but I believe in 2100, The U.S. will have a new Head Minority...Mixed Blood. They'll be 1/2 White, Black, Asian, Native, or Latino. It's actually starting now.

Wow, I had no idea that Frankie Muniz and Bob Villa were part latino. I knew the others you mentioned were though. Anyway, thanks for the info MrCleveland.
