I'm mestizo and look white. Spain is like england to us Mexican Americans. We have the best of both worlds. I'm Spanish and tarahumara Indian but more on the Spanish side. My ancestors drove your ancestors out of Mexico because we didn't need u anymore. What has Spain accomplished other than raping indians and hiding behind a cross when u brought evil to the new world
I'm proud of my heritage but spanish people from Spain are soft. Look at pau gasol. He's like a woman in a mans body. I hear that people in Spain don't have any regard for the mestizo race. U guys suck at war and haven't done **** for 500 years. Oh they won the world cup. Soccers a pansy sport. We mestizos are stronger than the native Spanish will ever be. I'm a 5th generation American. The greatest country on earth and Mexican Americans have fought for and sacrificed alot for our country. Spain is not a factor in this country. Your military sucks and the U.S. already kicked your ass once. so please don't ever for a second, think u spaniards are better than us mestizos. Because your track record proves otherwise. Viva estados unidos y viva Mexico tu Pinche ******es!!
My comment was directed for a previous American bashing guy from Spain who offended me with his choice of words. Throw a tomato at me if I hurt your feelings
Why do Americans think Spanish people (aka Spaniards aka Europeans) are non-white?

There are many native Spaniards with blue eyes and blonde hair, but just because most have brown eyes, dark hair an a tan, dfoesnt mean they aint white.
I mean most Americans would consider them non-white.
The same Americans would say Christiano Ronaldo (portugese), Al Pacino (Italian-American) and Monica Belucci (Italian) are white.
I think there are so many Latinos in the world that people forget about the Spanish colonizers. Also many people up until recently use Spanish to describe Latinos who are often a mixture of black/indian/spanish.

I don't see how one could consider the Spanish non-white, but consider Italians or Greeks white. They are all Mediterraneans.
As white as snow. Who do you think the Indians were calling white man when the Spanish came over?
People from Europe are white, period. All of the indigenous folks over there be they from Norway, Germany, Denmark, France, Romania, Albania, wherever.
What's so great about being white? Everybody envies you and then calls you a racist to boot. I mean, why is everybody so sensitive about whether or not they are in the white 'category'?
or they assume if you are white then you are rich.
Because theres are no pure races in the world today ....back in the early evolutionary days humans stocks were mixed up to create the races we see today ...some mixed more than others...the only races that represent the oldest original races are black ppl (isolated in Africa) and asian ppl(chose Asia) and even they are descended from descendents who were already mixed....even so called "white" ppl show so many varying characteristics is bc they've been mixed early on in evolution with ppl in and around the Mediterranean and located to Europe ...Then the continents and glaciers started to shift causing races to never even make contact with each other for half million years..African-American and Africans arent two different races one is just more mixed up than the other through evolution
