To my understanding, people from Spain are classed as caucasian, the same as 
the more northern Europeans. Merely because they speak a more "Latin" type 
language is no excuse to divide them from the caucasian race. Actually the 
English language is quite highly Latin influenced/sourced also.

I don't call ANYBODY latino or hispanic, they call themSELVES the one or the 
other. Which one SHOULD one use??

There is a small, country town, near where I am in Texas called, "Bedias", 
pronounced, "Beddy-us", named after the Bedias Indians who dwelt there. Near 
that town is a Texas state historical marker, stating that Texas was named 
after the Tejas (Tehas) Indians whom the Spaniards encountered there; Tejas 
meaning "friendly". Excuse me if the state of Texas historical commission is 
wrong. But, the Spaniards didn't create the name. It was the name of the 
local tribe of Indians.

It appears that Cristobol Colon was Christopher Columbus. Interesting trivia 
for "Jeopardy"!! But does anyone know who Elwood P. Suggins really is?? I do!!

  Paul -- Where do you think Cristobol Colon came from?
  Western Europe, yes, but the latinos you call hispanics are called that
  because their ancestry is from Colon's country. And Texas was named in the
  language of another ethnic group. Not anglo-saxon.
