Latinos surpass Caucasians in March !!!!!

This does not matter.

What does matter is the manner in which place government and freedom (personal freedom and freedom to possess and control real and material property [including money]) has in culturally political thought.

Superficially, the Iberian Peninsula (now Spain and Portugal) and England south of Hadrian's Wall have similar back grounds.

Originally Celtic; Latin provinces; German migration; German and Angevin ancestry in royal bloodlines; The King was the head of the church (Henry VIII broke away from Rome, The Spanish Pope made a deal with post Muslim Spain); both Spanish despotism and English mercantilism forbid trade with any but the home country; and so on.

And both America and the Latin American countries had issues concerning property and justice, and both succeeded in independence while the mother countries were at war with France.

(French troops deployed to assist the American revolution had a lot to do with the 1781 American victory at Yorktown. England was at war all around the globe with France, Spain, and the Dutch.

Napoleon took degenerate King Charles IV of Spain hostage and installed Joseph Bonaparte on the Spanish Throne in 1808. After Charles was reinstated there were uprisings and civil wars in Peninsular Spain, and Charles IV refused the Mexican conservative invitation to be Monarch of Mexico after Mexican independence in 1821 - he wanted things as they were before Iturbide turned Mexican nationalist and the Spanish deputy signed for independence without authorization. In Mexico it was death to bad government, long live the king: In the American colonies before Concord and Lexington the thought was long live the king who ruled badly by listening to to bad advisers).

So, what was it that facilitated a "can do" America and a dismal collection of "failed every which way" Latin American states?

Race has nothing to do with it, and far left "Latino activism" is only possible by the very Americanization the so called "elite" and so called "progressive educators" are attempting to stamp out.

Race and the embrace of one culturally embedded political idea or another are not mutually exclusive.
