Elsewhere, I reiterate the common sense case that the decline in the proportion of Americans who are of "English" ancestry over the past 30 years from 22% to 9% is mostly a function of changed questionnaires and cultural preferences.

That's a good post! How do you decide what's published on which blog?
geared toward what the readers would be interested in. most of my historical stuff is over there. i have cobloggers who blog about genetics, so i put most of that stuff here.
What about those of us who are of 'mixed blood'. I'm English-American on my father's side, French and German-American on my mother's.
And full Native American* going back to the late 18th century on Mom's side, and the middle 17th century on Dad's side. :)
*Native American: Anybody born in the United States regardless of race. And the racist academics can go corn hole themselves.
Fascinating. The idea of what constitutes "being American" is endlessly explored by my sister and me since she married a Brit (of Welsh descent) and moved to Scotland.
