Just saw the CNN footage from Florida shooter. can anyone tell me what a white Hispanic is?

The term Hispanic (Spanish: hispano or hispánico, Galician: hispánico, Asturian: hispanu, Basque: hispaniar, Catalan: hispà, hispàno) broadly refers to the people, nations, and cultures that have a historical link to Spain. It commonly applies to countries once colonized by the Spanish Empire in the Americas (see Spanish colonization of the Americas) and Asia, particularly the countries of Latin America and the Philippines. It could be argued that the term should apply to all Spanish-speaking cultures or countries, as the historical roots of the word specifically pertain to the Iberian region. It is difficult to label a nation or culture with one term, such as Hispanic, as the ethnicities, customs, traditions, and art forms (music, literature, dress, architecture, cuisine, and others) vary greatly by country and region. The Spanish language and Spanish culture are the main traditions.

Hispanic originally referred to the people of ancient Roman Hispania, which roughly comprised the Iberian Peninsula, including the contemporary states of Spain, Portugal, Andorra, and the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar.

Now all he has to do is promise some minority groups some stuff and never deliver and he will be unstoppable in 2020!

At least Trump is not denying anymore Russia's involvement.

Isn't the line of complaint that white republican males are now a minority? If so, mission already accomplished.

As if people are going to watch.

Hopefully you weren't expecting the kind of lavish musical performances like we had in 2009.

All of it.

Okay, you may have a point. More entertainers are Democrats. On the bright side, this inauguration won't be followed by four years of Obama, so I'll try to not shed a tear about the lack of Beyonce.

I just worry about the "make America a manufacturing giant" again stuff.

I mean, I'm on board with it in theory.

Hey just curious, we're liberals expecting a ceremony where the two presidents were gonna exchange some big novelty check like they do when someone wins the lottery?

As if thats the only way one could "pay" for something.

Not for the inauguration, but I always figured that is what Trump was imagining when Mexico paid for the wall.

I'm glad you're on board.

I'm sure Trumps election had nothing to do with this decision. One things for sure Michigan is already making out well for turning red and Ohio isn't doing bad either.

Trump is fulfilling campaign promises and he isn't even sworn in yet.

Consumers worldwide have gravitated toward SUVs and trucks while turning away from passenger cars. Last year in the U.S., car sales fell 7 percent while truck and SUV sales rose 8 percent.

Maybe his goal is to unite the country against him.
