In Houston we've got a wide range of "Hispanics"--from all of South & Central America, the Islands & even from Spain itself. But the largest group by far is "Mexican-American". That group includes quite recent immigrants & others whose ancestors crossed that River long before most of mine had crossed the Ocean.

One Cuban-American, Orlando Sanchez, ran for mayor twice--as a Republican. He lost both times.
