The article starts out with "Latino history is the history of Mexicans and other Hispanics in the United States..." Surely that ought to say Mexicans and other Latinos. I haven't read the whole thing, but I believe that Latinos and Hispanics are distinct terms that should not be used interchangeably (at least among my Latino students).--David Boven 10:56, 22 May 2008 (CDT)
