#2 It's Miami - huge Cuban-American population there; not representative of the entire state of FL.

#4 50 yrs. ago I got one of my first jobs working in a factory in NJ. Most of the employees were Hispanic and didn't speak much English which is why I got a cushy job when I really didn't deserve it. The managers wanted someone that they could converse with.

But the point of that was there were two Hispanic factions that didn't like each other, the Cubans and the Puerto Ricans. The Cubans thought the PRs lazy and not good workers, the Cubans worked hard and never gave trouble. The PRs thought the Cs arrogant and bossy.

Lots of laughs all around...............not.

#5 Cubans vs PR's is true. And God help you if you equate a Cuban to a Mexican...

#6 Cubans are aristocratic Spanish living in a colonial island possesion, in their minds and culture. Sort of like an island portion of Columbians.
