None of it is correct and no one should take US census seriously, the only ones who look white would be the Cubans and the Uruguayans and Argentinians from Florida. The rest are not white.
hopefully soon we have the mestizo category in the Census

I do take it seriously for most things but the Hispanic/Latino category doesn't really work with the Census. Mexicans, Central Americans and South Americans are far too diverse for that.

Regardless, even for other ethnic groups, it's not in depth enough. It lumps all MENA's into the Caucasian category when the majority wouldn't be seen as "white" in the U.S.
