Interesting thread. I love the comment about the 'Irish' person from Alabama. I've always thought that was one of the stupidest things about our culture here. Sure, your great-great Grandparents may have come from Ireland but that doesn't make you a real Irish person.
Native Americans vs. Indians - Now I've only talked to a few of them in depth but none of the ones I've talked to called themselves Native Americans. They were Indians and proud of it. Obviously there is a sample size issue and the fact that they were angst-filled people in their 20's has an effect on it but it is interesting.
