I "identify" as one-sixteenth Serbian, although I don't have a drop of Serbian blood.

Anyone in America got a problem with that?

Didn't think so.

The "Indian Problem" (i.e., the "problem" of Whites claiming Indian heritage - often based on scant evidence) is likewise a non-problem.

Every American should be free to claim whatever ancestry he likes - after all, we are all equal before the Law, right?

Ri-iight?

Regards,

Im 3/64 American... or 1/16 depending on who’s counting ...

My Vermont born 3rd great grandmother married a 1/2 American 1/2 Canadian making my 2 GG father a 3/4 American and so on ...

Actually that 1/2 and half had American parents ... Loyalists who had fled to Canada ...so he was American born in Canada ...

All the ancestors on both sides for several generations were Americans ... back to the early 1600s ...

That 2 GG father left Canada for New Zealand ...

As children in New Zealand, we called ourselves Americans which impressed our school mates ...

:)
