''Hispanic surnamed'' used to be the criteria.

Long, long ago. Before the Census started asking the Hispanic
Question
in
1980.

Otherwise, Vicente Fox would not be Hispanic. Fujimori, former
president
of
Peru, would not be. And all these others:

Assad Bucaram Mayor of Guayaquil
Carlos Menem President of Argentina
Bernardo O'Higgins, Liberator of Chile.
Alfredo Stroessner President of Paraguay
Enrique Rikenhoff Puerto Rico Olympic Committee.
José Liberman Radio Station owner in Mexico
Jacobo Zabludovsky Mexican news anchor
Raul Astor Argentine Comedian

And so on.

Hey, tell me again about how you left home at 13 and moved to
Mexico.

And that has exactly "what" to do with how the surnames of Hispanics
do
not
have to be "Spanish?"

Awwww Wardo, I just wanted you to tell me that lie again!

Funny, but my passport has my first entrance to Mexico at age 13, and
final
move there a couple of years later.

That's just a bit different from this quote:

"I was 13 when I went to Latin America, and grew up there, in homes where
only Spanish was spoken."

I went for long intervals, and returned to the US on several occasions for
short periods. The last was to go to Quincy, IL, to buy equipment for a
radio station. But I was living in Latin America most of the time from when
I was 13.

It's all coming back to you now...

No, it is just about how much detail you want. It should be enough to know
that from the end of my 13th year onwards, I spent nearly all my time in
Latin America or in Latino communities in the US. I'm really sorry, but if I
knew you cared that much, I would have saved all my airline tickets.
