If I were to say the US is a country of black people that would be misrepresenting the country.

The fact is there were a bunch of diverse origins and while the president may have felt negritos were of African origin, that doesn`t excuse the fact that for political gain he represented the entire country as being of that group.

Your data specifically indicates a large number of diverse groups, that existed before the Americans came on the island. You indicate, that because one particular group of people may have believed to be of African origin it is ok to represent the entire country as being of African origin, and to misrepresent its population and attitudes for political gain.
