Who is Hispanic?

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, “Hispanic” refers to people in the United States of any race who trace their origin to Mexico, Puerto Rico, and other Spanish-speaking countries in Central and South America and the Caribbean. More than 44.3 million people identified themselves as Hispanic in the Census’ 2006 population estimate – approximately 15 percent of the population of the United States. People of Hispanic origin are the nation’s largest ethnic or race minority.

Imagine what 2011 will be like?
