Anyone who descends from a Spanish or formerly Spanish colony (with the exception of the Southwest US) or Spain. "Hispanic" is simply an ethnicity, NOT a race. Hispanics are mostly mestizo (of white and Amerindian descent) in most Spanish-speaking countries, with the exception of Spain and Argentina (whose populations are mostly white.) Spain's people are mixed Mediterranean and Nordic/Aryan.

According to the U.S. Census, people who come from or decended from a Spanish-speaking people or country. The term "Hispanic" is completely incorrect as it lumps together two different races to be one: (for example) Spanish Europeans with Mexicans. Mexicans are in fact biracial, since they are mixed of Spanish and Native American ancestry. Caucasians are considered people who have European ancestry. Since Spain is in Europe, Spaniards are white/caucasian, which is obvious by their physical appearence.
