Would a white Mexican who looks like Penelope Cruz be considered white in the US?
because I don't know but I have the impression that many predominally white mexicans who look sterotypically Mediterranian would be assumed to be mixed and non-white...Am I right? In Miami or NYC I was seen a white hispanic. My adolescence best friend from Venezuela too. When minorities clasehd racialy we would be called crackers by blacks and we would seldomly if ever clash with wasps more often we would be called good looking hispanics if that prhase indicates something as a distinction from the wasp poit of view. (I´ll get a pic of my venezuelan buddy when i get back to my pc).

I would say 1 to 2 at most in every 4 hispanics in the US is White or vastly pred MEd in pheno (if you consider me as equivalent to italians) but you have to look at where it´s the high Socio Economic Status migration like there is a lot to Miami and NYC less in the west coast I believe.
