Dusseldorf posted:First of all the Spanish aren't Hispanic by US census definition (or probably popular racial distinction). Secondly I was addressing that there is a (semi-)significant group of white hispanics who are not of European origin. The OMB and Census 2010 definition of Hispanic is, "a person of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race". Spain would count as a "Spanish" culture. http://www.census.gov/prod/cen2010/briefs/c2010br-04.pdf Note that one of the specific examples given as a response for the question is "Spaniard".

OneEightHundred posted:That's probably because the 2010 census split race and Hispanic origin into 2 separate questions, asked respondents to answer both of them, and the race question didn't include a checkbox for people of Latin American origin. It didn't because the US Government doesn't consider Hispanic a "race". Hispanics can be of any race; they can be black, white, native-American, even Asian.
