What this article proves is that race is entirely a social construct. That being said, if the Census is to have racial categories, they should have a category that Hispanics can identify with besides white. A large number of Hispanics also put mixed/other, which is more accurate for the darker-skinned looking mestizos. In Peru, most mestizos identify more with their Amerindian side. (In Argentina on the other hand, they see themselves as European.)
