To: I want the USA back
Since there is no legal definition of race, ‘hispanic’, or the other categories, it is impossible to answer the question correctly.

For Race, I always say that I don't know. Because, honestly, I do not know the racial origins of my great-grandparents. I don't even know their names! I could well be African American, or any other race, and not know it.

To: Haiku Guy
On both sides of my family, they were English and both families moved from the Carolinas to Arkansas. THEN, a great, great, grandfather married a Choctaw Indian woman who was with the Choctaw Indians who stopped in Arkansas on their way to Oklahoma where they settled on a reservation.

I figured that up one time, and think I determined I am 1/16 Choctaw Indian. I think I should get money from the government since they took my land away and stuck my ancestors on a reservation.

Maybe on the next census form, I'll put I am American Indian, that should upset them.
