2010 Census = 17 choices for race plus one for "white"

The Census wants to know three things

1. Name
2. Age
3. Race

Under Race

1. Mexican, Chicano
2. Puerto Rican
3. Cuban
4. Other Hispanic - with space to input the specific origin
5. Black, African American
6. American Indian or Alaskan Native
7. Asian Indian
8. Chinese
9. Fillipino
10. Japanese
11. Korean
12. Vietnamese
13. Native Hawaiian
14. Guamanian or Chamorro
15. Samoan
16. Other Pacific Islander - with space to input the specific origin
17. Other Asian - with space to input the specific origin
18. White

So white people get lumped into one category without distinct. My suggestions:

• Anglo-Saxon,
• Mediterranean,
• Scandinavian,
• Gaulic,
• Slavic,
• Other Caucasian
