Can somebody shed light on this ones and for all. The differences between the following:

Latino

Mexican

Hispanic

Spanish

I'm assuming Latino is people from Brazil and South America. They're ancestry is a mixture of white and black peoples. Mexicans are essentially Indians that always lived in North and South America. Hispanic refers to both groups. All these groups are also called Spanish but that's just a bastardization of the word. They speak Spanish and may have some Spanish ancestry but the only Spanish people are whites from Spain in Europe. Did I get it right?
