Best white/Caucasian role models in Trek....?

[Red Ranger]

Nods to Devileyes in the Asian thread for this thought about the blanket term "Euro-American": if we had a Star Trek character who was from Spain (I'm not aware of any, so please enlighten if you do), would s/he count as white/caucasian/European since the country is in Europe, or would he be an Hispanic character like Torres, along the lines of Mexican, Central & South American, etc? I admit, my knowledge of Spain and Latino nations is pretty slim.

Things that make you go hmmm.

Someone from Spain is not Latino/Hispanic. European is a better descriptor. Some of the features of being Latino are (a) born in the Western Hemisphere in Latin America, anywhere from Mexico to Tierra del Fuego in Argentina; and (b) whose culture is an agglomeration of European (mainly Spaniards), African (mainly from West Africa), and Native Americans (Mayans, Aztecs, Tainos, etc.) As for favorite honky role model, Picard, definitely. -- RR
