Ahem. In SOME Nations we define membership via unbroken line of male descent.
Therefore, by the laws of the Iriquois Nation I'm full-blooded Iriquois. Ever though I'm as generic-white-bread-anglo as it gets.
And since the Nation recognizes me, the Feds think so too.
Not that I've ever used it, but I could. . .

"Therefore, by the laws of the Iriquois Nation I'm full-blooded Iriquois" You are absolutely right, although in some nations it is through the maternal line. By that definition, I am Cherokee, even though my ancestry is predominantly Dutch.
