Stereotypes that are common from the American point of view is that all mexicans are small and very tan people.  In fact much of this is true, not all of the Mexicans are this way.  Vicinte Fox for example was the ex-president and was very tall and white.  Also another common misconception is the type of food that Mexicans eat is much like what you would buy at taco bell.  However i know this also to be false.  From my own personal experience latin americans in general are much cleaner in the household.  This is something i am very excited to encounter.    A common Mexican stereotype of Americans is that we are all rich and get drunker than necessary.  I hope to break these stereotypes.
