  1. Neither German nor English, Nor French, nor the Spanish are the most dominant Ethnic group in the US. The US white Americans have developed a distinct ethnic group of their own separate from all the mentioned ones... You may have German or English Heritage... But you aren't English, Nor German. Same way as Britain, France, Spain or even parts of Germany have strong Roman Heritage but aren't Roman. Do you think that's a stretch? No it isn't. It took less than 300 years for Europeans to split up into different groups after Rome fell... It had been 300 years since the first settlers in the Americas. (it's actually been nearly half a century) It gets more hypocritical when US sees Latin Americans as their own separate race and ethnic groups... Not calling them Latin German, od South American Portuguese.... But they do so for themselves? Why... Btw- same goes for African Americans. They are in no way the same ethnic group as their ancestors in Africa. Heck, even less so given the far higher mixing among African slaves by simply being thrown together... By them all developing distinct offshoots from what their ancestral land was.

  2. The United States Cencus Biro doesn't know what an ethnicity is as no ine who lives in US today is actually German just because their X granpa in 1810 was a german. Most Americans are simple that... Americans. It's been 300 years of heavy intermarium between German, Duch, French, Spanish and Predominantly English settlers.... You are an ethnic group of your own... Not the European ethnic groups...
