You do realize that Bonilla is Hispanic and not white (and looks it too). 
I do realize. However, in comparison to Ciro Rodriguez...
Bonilla looks Indian in comparison to Ciro.

True dat. 

Of course in that area of the world, the mestizos clearly outnumber those who look more European (Ciro looks almost Spanish)

The mestizos were always the ones most likely to immigrate, since the caste system in Latin America really screws them over.

Add to this that mestizos are some 70% of Mexico's population (as against about 15% white). And that white Mexicans are not normally perceived as such even after a single generation in the US (unless, of course, they find it profitable to claim Hispanic identity - see Richardson).
