Is this list really a comprehensive list of all "races" in the USA? And are these categories really all "races"?

Well, I am white of Spanish origin, but since I have a pretty good tan and look sort of brown, that's what i am going to enter (brown). Then a white student I know is from South Africa, and he is going to enter African American.

Okay, let's have fun with this foolishness (worrying about race is foolish IMHO). I'm going to put "Vermonter" as my race. LMAO
