Most 3rd generation & above Spaniard Americans are infact highly assimilated into English-speaking White American society,neither speaking Spanish nor holding onto cultural ancestral values. Much the same way that many Portuguese Americans,French Americans,Italian Americans,Austrian Americans are doing. When I attended college I met a few Spaniard Americans, their surname were Banuelos,Sanchez and Vidal, they are clearly White race and nothing else.
