I’m a native American. I was born and raised in this country.

That’s THEIR headline...check the key words.

I lived and worked for ten years in northern Canada among both Inuit and Native people, and it seems to me the Inuit and the Cree/Athapaskan people looked very different. Their cultures were very different indeed. What do you think?

Also I have read that the Algonkian peoples have a high incidence of the genome X as opposed to other groups in North American.

This is from Oppenheimer.

Interested in your opinion, thanks.

Me, too.

That does bring up an interesting discussion point, however. Should the populations discovered here and named Indian by European explorers be called something else since they are obviously not from India?

Besides the overly broad term, Native American (which, as you have noted, applies to you and me as well as the group so designated by the PC crowd), I have seen AmerInd and several others. Perhaps, they would be more correctly identified as Aboriginal Americans. What do you think?

Same here.

Sometimes I check the little Native American box just to annoy the HR people.
