Respuesta: Hispanic or latino.
Hello,I found that on WikiAnswers but it seems to be a too simple explanation to me;):
"Hispanic refers to Spain and its culture and people, and is especially applied to Americans whose first language is Spanish.
Latin refers to the language of ancient Rome, but is also used to describe a person from a country whose language developed from Latin: for example, Latin American."
Have a look at this as well:

Respuesta: Hispanic or latino.
Latino doesn't exist, is an invented modern term, because as someone of our brothers sometime said: Then it could be used in North America with every quebecois and even with italian-american people.

I think you've rated that explanation exceedingly well, La Marchigiana; too simple. So simple, that we can repute it simpleton rather than simple.
Notice: the portuguese are hispanic, as well as the andorrean and the gibraltarian are (or at least they should be, for Gribraltar is ocupied spanish land)... and yet, they're not spanish, meaning they're not spanish citizens nor subjects of the King of Spain. They too are hispanic because they share the same historical and cultural legacy that the spaniards got from the Roman and later Visigothic Hispania. The language often called spanish is in truth castillian and as much spanish as catalonian is, or galician, or astur-leonese, or valencian, or basque, or aranese. And as much hispanic as portuguese is.
Therefore, all the portuguese speaking countries (former colonies of the ancient portuguese empire) are most rightfully hispanic.

I don't know where were you trying to copy from, so I can't. Using the preview function should help to avoid this kind of problems ;)
