@lookagain77 True. The French named the Caribbean, Central America and South America "Latin America" (Amerique Latine). The reason for it was political like you said. It was named "Latin America", because the French wanted in the colonization game in the Americas, and because the Spanish and Portuguese were already there and were part of the Latin European ethnicity just like the French, the French named it Latin America to make it seem that it was ok for them being fellow Latins to enter in.

Here is my prediction for the United States: The large white population will begin to mix with the Latino (mostly mestizo) population to create a majority mixed race castizo population of 3/4 white/1/4 Native American. There will be minority populations of whites, blacks, Asians, Arabs and mulattoes. There will be a minority of multiracial people also. Some whites will white flight out of the U.S., but some will remain. Some blacks will remain, some will be mixed into the castizos.

@livvylove I wouldn't say Irish. but celtic yes. lol Not just because of your new last name. but because of your Spanish last name, as spain was also settled by Celtic tribes and then some of those celtic-berian tribes migrated to ireland.

Also Potatoes is South American not native to Ireland. The Spanish introduced Potatoes to europeans and ireland is one of them.

So sweety you married a south american with a irish surname. The day the irish adopted potatoes they became south american. lmao

@Khaagon I now have an irish last name, so now I'm no longer hispanic because I got married. Good to know. Guess I should give up rice and beans for potatoes
