I've thought about this for years now. What changes should be made?

There should not be an Hispanic label, but the three races, Caucasian, African and NAtive American, and also other.

I hear more want to be considered Native American.

I chekcd all three ancestries(white, black and native american, and also Latino and Puerto Rican, but I think the Latino/Hispanic label should be out.

[GreefeWrereon]

They should add Mestizo, Triracial, and Mulatto.

[Styparty]

They should add Mestizo, Triracial, and Mulatto.

if you are mestizo, you just mark both NA and Caucasian, if triracial, the three, afro, caucasian and NA, and mulatto caucasian and afro.

That actually sounds pretty simple, I doubt the USA will ever do it though. However if this did happen I hope people know enough history (Family history as well) to mark the correct categories. White, Black, Asian, and Native American should be the main categories.
