Texican has multiple meanings. It could apply to the 300 approx. farmers-ranchers who were granted land under the Mexican laws, pre-Republic days. It could apply to those who first formed a government and fought against Mexico. It could apply to the Tex-Mex customs and food of the border country, and the people who claim these as their heritage. It could apply to the lingo of the border country. It could apply to the Texans of Spanish-Mexican origin. It could mean the whole Latino population in Texas.

Not sure what DougR is implying by his remark.
