Some of the "Hispanics" in the United States may be FROM Latin America (which would include Mexico, Central and South America and the Caribbean).  Latin America traditionally is a geographical designation, not a group of people who are "Latin"  (Latino) and happen to be living in America. "Hispanic" refers to Spanish-speaking peoples, and "Latino" refers to people of Latin American origin. Not all Latinos are Spanish-speaking.  Also, the word Hispanic is considered to be offensive in some areas because of the way the government uses it.

Hispanics constitute the largest minority group in the United States. As of July 1, 2004, Hispanics accounted for 14.1 % of the population, around 41.3 million people. Hispanic growth rate over the July 1, 2003 to July 1, 2004 period was of 3.6 % - higher than any other ethnic group in the United States, and in fact more than three times the rate of the nation's total population (at 1.0 %). The projected Hispanic population of the United States for July 1, 2050, is of 102.6 million people. According to this projection, Hispanics will constitute 24% of the nation’s total population on that date. [2]\n\nOf the nation's total Hispanic population, 49% lives in California or Texas. Not counting Puerto Rico — which is a territorial possession of the United States — New Mexico is the state with the highest proportion of Hispanics, where 43% is of Hispanic-origin. The proportion of Hispanics in the states of California and Texas exceed 35% each.\n\nThe Hispanic population of Los Angeles County, California--numbering over 4.6 million--is the largest of any county in the nation. [3] Meanwhile, for the 2000 to 2004 period, Lee County, Florida had the fastest growth rate in Hispanic population of any other county in the United States. [4]\n\nSome 64% of the nation's Hispanic population are of Mexican or Mexican-American background. Another approximately 10% are of Puerto Rican background, with about 3% each of Cuban, Salvadoran and Dominican origins. The remainder are of some other Central American, South American or other Hispanic or Latino origins. [5]\n\nThe overwhelming majority of Hispanics of Mexican/Mexican-American origin are concentrated in the Southwestern United States, primarily California, Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico. The majority of the Hispanic population in the Southeastern United States, concentrated in Florida, are of Cuban origin. The Hispanic population in the Northeastern United States, concentrated in New York and New Jersey, is composed mostly of Puerto Ricans, however, the Dominican population has risen considerably in the last decade, especially in proportion to that region's Hispanic population. The remainder of other Hispanics, composed of various Central American and South American origins, may be found throughout the country, though South Americans tend to concentrate on the East Coast of the United States (joining Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, and Cubans) and Central Americans on the West Coast of the United States (joining Mexicans/Mexican Americans). There are few immigrants from Spain due to it's economical growth, they do not regard themselves with the term Hispan as used in the United States.

None of you are white! You Spaniards, Italians and Greeks are all brown, brown, brown!\n\nAnd, you, a Spaniard touting your "whiteness?" PLEASE! Look at your Moorish ancestors and say that again!\n\nSpain is not white. Maybe in its own eyes only!

Mexicans seem to be alone and excluded from the Hispanic race. I'm not going to lie I'm Puerto Rican and people in my family and some of our other Hispanic friends don’t see Mexicans as the same. I don’t know why they’re so discriminated against by other Hispanics. I have Mexican friends who will never admit to anyone what they are. It’s very sad. Hispanics can tell the difference but you can’t expect others to. Can you tell the difference between an African-Americans and Africans? Probably not. Can you tell the difference between Asians? Probably not. Same thing.

Officially La Raza says they work for the welfare of Hispanics (which is about as believeable as Al-Qaida working for the betterment of Islam or KKK defending Christian ideals)...\n\nUnoffically (and possibly more to the truth)... MeCha and La Raza are racist (they apparently have a severe dislike of caucasians, africans and asians) groups working to the detriment of the United States of America. These plans as I know consists primarily of getting enough Hispanics into the southern US to provide a rationale for seceding those southern states from the USA and uniting them to Mexico.
