America!!! The REAL United Nations!!!

My family is "redneck" as far back as we can find and I am married to a first generation American of Puerto Rican heritage. They sure make'em beautiful down there!!!

Same here! I am of a 57 variety ethenic(sp) background that is married to a Polynesian/Brit. My younger son could be ID'd as someone from the Middle East, Mexico, French, Italian, PR, Spain, Turkey, etc.
We went to Tahiti when he was a baby, everyone wanted to know why an American woman (with glow in the dark skin) had a Tahitian baby. My husband looks Brit like his dad so many people think that our son is adopted.
People are so nosy, so it makes for some humorous questions
being asked.

Puerto Ricans have been Americans for a lot longer than one generation.

"America!!! The REAL United Nations!!!"

You got that right. I'm of German descent, married to a women who is Jewish. We have one natural child, and one recently adopted child from China. I have my own UN right at home!!!!

That's truly America; that's why we are the greatest nation on the face of the earth!!!

This is a prime example of how we shouldn't set any ethnicity apart. We are Americans!

On the lighter side. Does anyone know what ethnicity has blue, purple or maroon hair? I can't quite figure them out :-}
