    For these people, brown skin = Mexican.

    Appropriate given how many Southwest Natives were forced south of the border during the Indian Wars and subsequent colonization campaigns.

    Quite a few Mexican families can trace their lineage to the OG American People.

      I had a Philippine friend who kept getting called Mexican in high school, and the same people who said that are voting for Trump. Extract from that what you will.
