Question: Why is the term Hispanic or Latino used in a way that basically has elevated an ethnic label to racial status. Today in America when filling in any application you are asked if you are white, african american, asian or Hispanic? Why is the ethnic label used among racial labels, what makes the Hispanics more special than ANY other ethnic group? Well guees what the so-called leaders of that group got the message, they are indeed special, their label IS made special by the US Census Bureau and that is why this they are getting stronger, more powerful etc, they have achieved racial status and all the good stuff taht comes with it!

That is why we as Americans need to DEMAND that teh Hispanic label be stripped out of teh next 2010 US Census becuase it is being used for demographic hegemony and we go along out of idiocy!

Hispanics, are whites, blacks asians etc so lets count them as such and no other way. Nobody puts me in a FRANCOPHONE class and yet we are like Hispanics a collection of various countries, races with French culture, French culture and catholicism. Exactly what what Hispanic means!

Teh Hispanic label as used is DANGEROUS because it basically enshrines, albeit unconstitutionally, the HISPANIZATION of America.

We need to demand that it'd be stripped as it is a subversion.
