Because the census sometimes lumps groups, which can make the numbers look VERY different. For example in California, some old census forms from the1980's only listed caucasian, african-american, asian and native american- there was no choice for latinos. So most latinos were counted as white.

Some Europeans can have dark complexions too, especially those that live along the Mediterranean. Arabs are considered as Caucasoids, and have facial structures very similiar to that of Europeans (although many today also show admixture of African features). Some Arabs have fair skin.

It depends on the census being taken. Arabs, of course, are Semitic, not Caucasian; I've heard in some census', Hispanics were counted as whites, so again, it depends on the census.

"White", like "Asian" or "Black" is a term that refers to many groups- there is no such thing as a white (or black, or yellow) race. Science has already established that all humans are the same species- skin color is just a minor variation that resulted from adaptation to different climates & geographic regions.
Germans, Swedes. Italians, Russians, South Africans, Texans... They are different ethicities with different cultures, different languages, but variations in skin color don't constitute a different race. Just like Africans, Blacks in America, Cuba and Europe are different ethnicities.
People of different skin color who grew up in the same geographical region & speak the same language are part of the same culture. .
That's where most differences exist, in culture- just as there is more difference between a white BMW and a white Honda which were assembled in different countries, than between two different cars built in the same town, with different paint jobs.
A red corvette, black corvette and a white corvette are all the same type of American car.
