the concept of 'hispanic' is a made up idea.
People don't see them selves as that unless they are talking politics in the United States.
They think of themselves as 'Mexican' or 'Dominican' or 'venezuelan' and usually in their own language in their mind.
the idea of 'hispanic' was created to make a demographic for political purposes.
in reality no one thinks like that except when they are talkign politics.
they will call themselves Costa Rican or Argentinian or Chilean.
