They are considered to be white.

To add to the answer, many Hispanics are considered white, however the US government considers them to be a minority group being that they have a mixed heritage. For example, in Colombia, only perhaps 30% or less are deemed to be white according to the US government. Most Colombians have had enough inter racial marriages with Native Americans to be listed as Hispanic and thus a minority in the USA. The USA lists peoples with "black skin" who have lived in Cuba, Haiti, & the Dominican Republic to be Hispanic not white. Hispanics in the US Census are their own category. As far as can be known, the only "whites" considered to be such and speak Spanish are from Spain. Portugal people are considered white, but in Brazil, the heavy mixture of Native American, former Africans, and Portuguese peoples there place them as Hispanics and not as whites.

It should be noted this issue is based on the US governments definitions. How other nations classify Hispanics could be different.
