YOu forgot mexican

[george wythe]

Are blacks born & raised in Europe; European or African?

The US Census dealth with this issue already.

[keysguy]

I live in the Keys I'm a "Conch Republican."

snort.....Soul Patrol......snort

Yeah and how did she get that $600 mil??? By marrying into a hardworking American capitalist family!

She was a communist from the get go and John Heinz married her anyway. You have to tell your sons, it matters who you marry. I'm starting to think arranged marriages weren't such a bad idea after all.

[Petronski]

I am a native American. I was born in the United States.

Kerry pretended to be Irish for years, to get the Boston/MA Irish vote.

[MD_Willington_1976]

All of the Africans, real African born on that continent, I have met say most "African-Americans" are lazy and arrogant...Hey I'm not trying to start anything here but...thats what they've said.

Also my neighbour, who was a marine was in somalia, and the Somalis would call his fellow black marines "Toby Jackson's"

????

Oh well flame away if you must...

All righty then - issue settled - the Census folks are always right. We can't question their authority, now can we?

I guess I'll always be one of those European lineage people even if I want only to be an American (15th generation).

It isn't all about color. It is more about culture. Knowing as many white Africans as I do, they consider themselves to be more African, than the most afrocentric black American. My mother who is a West Indian creole woman is as European as Queen Elizabeth. My father who was born in Italy but came here as a little boy was more UN PC American than Archie Bunker with not much traditional Italian culture. I was born here but 'American' wouldn't be my culture, it'd be more along the lines of Rudyard Kipling so in the end all this color talk is really CRAP.

"She is more African than most 'African Americans' over here. That doesn't make her black or mean she has soul or is superbad."

Bet she can't dance worth a tinker's rearend, either.

[TravisBickle]

My favorite African-American.

All righty then - issue settled - the Census folks are always right. We can't question their authority, now can we?

The issue is not settled for social interactions. If you want to call yourself African, Austrakian or Martian, you have any right to do it.

Nevertheless, if you're trying to get any of the goodies reserved for African Americans, such as college spots or government contracts, you're out of luck.

And if you're Democrat obfuscating with hyphens and trees, you might also be out of luck when the federal definition is read to you by a reporter.

Are you trying to post a pic of Charlize Theron?!

[TravisBickle]

yeah, can't you see it?

Well, gee. Which kind of Cyborg are you?

[justshutupandtakeit]

Nothing any RAT says or does will deflect the 90+% of mind-numbed zombies from voting RAT.

She and Kerry could lynch a young black boy from the pulpit and the corrupted would still vote for any RAT with a Republican opponent.

[cyborg]

Depends on what time of the month

Now come on folks. You've got to know that what Mrs. Heinz really means is that she's A Frickin' American...not an African American. It's all in the accentuation.
