Actually, based on radio listening, a huge segment of the audience in
Mexico
(more than half) listens to pop and music in English from the US.

You got everything ass-backwards here.


Here's an interesting graph to put all of this in perspective for you:

What does that have to do with the racist, Anti-Mexican statement you
made
and the totally inaccurate data on Mexican music you posted? Or is it
simple
obfuscation. If all your facts are equally flawed, you are in serious
trouble.


Mexican is not a race.


Check a dictionary, fool. "Race " is correctly used to describe groups, such
as ethnic or national ones, as well as skin color. In this case, it is a
group of people with a common feature.

Oxford Concise:

race2

n noun

1 each of the major divisions of humankind, having distinct physical
characteristics. Øracial origin or distinction. Øan ethnic group. Øa group
descended from a common ancestor.

2 a group of people or things with a common feature.

3 Biology a distinct population within a species; a subspecies.

ORIGIN

C16: via French from Italian razza, of unknown ultimate origin.

USAGE

In recent years, the associations of race with the ideologies and theories
that grew out of the work of 19th-century anthropologists and physiologists
has led to the use of the word race itself becoming problematic. Although
still used in general contexts, it is now often replaced by other words
which are less emotionally charged, such as people(s) or community.
