My grandfather was born in Santander, a port city on the northern coast of Spain. You'd never think by looking at him that he was "Hispanic" in the American sense.

It’s all made up.

You'd never think by looking at him that he was "Hispanic" in the American sense.

Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, Chileans and everyone in between come in all shapes and colors from extremely blonde to extremely black; from very tall to very short. Some dress very Hollywood American. Some dress very business suit American. Some dress very ethnic sub-group. But I know man non-Hispanics who try to pass for Hispanic. I've repeatedly been mistaken for Mexican (especially by Puerto Ricans because I learned my Spanish from Mexicans). How is it possible to look at a person and think that the person is, or is not, Hispanic? One must be psychic.

I have lived many years in Central and south Texas, and I think that I can see a difference in Mexicans from near the border compared to Mexicans from Central Mexico. Seems to me that the Central Mexicans look Caucasian, while the border Mexicans look American Indian-(No disrespect meant to anyone.)
