Born in the USA. You are an American. Your ethnically Puerto Rican and Cuban, and if you back far enough you may have Spanish blood, African blood, British (English, Irish, Scots & Welsh) blood, maybe Portuguese, some German, of course, can't forget the French, Chinese, Japanese and Indian as well as Native Americans. Well then again probably most Americans could say that too.

You are an American, if you were born here.
If you wish to say more, you can explain where your parents can from, but only if you wish.
Many Americans have parents or grandparents from other countries. I'm a mess.
Englash, Welsh and Native American on my Dad's side. Scot, Irish, French Canadian and Native American on my Mom's side.
So I'm a Native of Florida where I was born and an American.

That's a beautiful blend, I have to say. Spanish to me means from Spain.
Why not say Cubarican ;-)?
Hispanic American?
Hispanic covers all Spanish speaking countries.
Or, "halfcubanhalfpuertoricanbornintheusa"

"Hispanic" might be a little more accurate.
