And for the record, Paz already implied being of Latina descent at least in the third tape, where she mentioned that she used to eat gallo pinto made by her mom, though she barely even remembers it. The character's stories have changed over the course of the games to show how disinformative they are. In Peace Walker, Kaz, Paz, Huey, and Strangelove did things that went against Boss's chain of command. In Ground Zeroes, Chico betrays MSF, and Kaz also mentions that Amanda was acting suspiciously. Can we really trust any of these characters? A clone wouldn't likely tell they were a clone, or even KNOW that they were a clone. Cipher could have done some Manchurian Candidate, Winter Solider type of mental conditioning.

Paz is too white to be Latina. She's of mixed ethnicity at best. And for the record, she was raised in America and lied about her age. Point is she's a fraud, as are many of Cipher's agents. Maybe so, but even IF Chico were to be a clone, not to mention a Les Enfants Terribles clone, he still is not Solidus. Remember, Solidus Snake was created AFTER The Twin Snakes (ie, Solid and Liquid Snake), specifically to act as a key to their system. Chico, based on his stated age, would be born at least two years before Les Enfants Terribles occurred, meaning he was most likely born well before even Solid and Liquid Snake were born. Assuming he were indeed a LET clone, he's most likely be one of the failures that both Liquid and EVA alluded to.

Oh, and since you're getting into someone's skin color as whether someone's a Latino/Latina, did you know that the blonde star of 1,000,000 BC is Latina herself? You wouldn't guess it from her appearance, yet she actually is, apparently she actually stated she was such.

Also, correct me if I'm mistaken, but I don't recall Strangelove really doing ANYTHING that went against Big Boss's chain of command (her torturing Big Boss doesn't count as she wasn't even a MSF member at the time she did so). Nor do I really remember Huey doing anything like that in Peace Walker, though he did definitely do something to that effect in Ground Zeroes.
