I'm not saying you are wrong but how does one become a "legit" Mexican than? there are Blacks that live in Mexico now, descendants of free slaves that moved there, and there are whites who are born and lived in Mexico their whole lives, as well as numerous Arabs like Carlos Slim who's parents are Lebanese, are they not "real" Mexicans? not every Mexican is a Meztizo btw.
There is a difference between someone who is Mexican by nationality, and someone who is Hispanic by ethnicity. Hispanic, of course, covers more than one country, but that's probably aside from the issue. The point is that Romney's ancestry doesn't contain any Hispanic members. Calling him Hispanic would be like two white Americans moving to Japan, having a baby, then moving back and calling their child ethnically Japanese.
