since the North American Amerindians learned English from the Anglo-Saxon settlers of North America, Americans were never "white" either. What's a hispanic who learned English then? Especially if they never learned Spanish? What's a Mennonite from Casas Grandeswho speaks fluent Spanish and holds only Mexican citizenship? What is Vicente Fox? Since Spaniards are generally referred to as "Europeans" and not "hispanic" and his ethnic heritage is European Spanish and Irish --- then does he count as a "hispanic"?

FITZ...are you making the argument that Hispanics are the indigenous people to the area that he's talking about?
In every single thread, you come in bringing up an exception to whatever comment I make.
There are exceptions to every thing FITZ, BUT THERE IS A REASON WHY THEY ARE CALLED EXCEPTIONS!
If you found a blond, blue eyed Egyptian, then that's an exception, and an obvious product of some sort of migration, because there were not indigenous blond haired, blue eyed people in Egypt, and there were no blond haired, blue eyed Amerindians before the arrival of the Europeans in the Americas.
