The reason hack politicians and ignorant or evil motivated ebloggers can get away with such stupidity is the public school system. I have a beautiful wife who could wrap herself in a sari and go unnoticed in a New Deli marketplace, but her ancestry is German, Slovac, Irish, Scottish and English (that I know of). I worked in a phone calling center after my disability cut me off from real work and I worked with college and highschool students. There was a bonus system there and I had a lot of points which I put up as a prize if they would take a quiz that I wrote which included only things I and my friends Knew in 1969 school general knowledge. I asked history, geography, politics, religion, and similar(my interests) questions. The two winners got about 20% correct. A "D" student would have done better in the bad old days of "sin, sex, beer, wine, we're the class of 69". It's common for California students now to place Spain somewhere in Mexico. I was just in California to see my grand-daughter and her father for the first time and one of her State supplied nurses said she was Spanish when she was clearly at least mostly Amerind in ancestry. Her other nurse that I met was descended from black Africans and red Amerinds and her "negro" husband was one quarter at most African origin(I saw her pictures of his Irish mother and German grandmother. He looked like a typical cockney pub bred MMA brawler). My grand-daughter is Scottish, English, German, French, Mic Mac, Seminole, and African. I could go on forever about our true origins and the politics behind the purposeful dumbing down of America's people, but it is sufficient to say that ignorance is the tool of tyrants and you can then fill in the rest. (P.S. It is the left overwhelmingly that, like Hitler, uses "Race" to make political points. I personally don't know any rightwing racists, but I see the left using race in every argument, it was atheist-Darwinist-socialist/fascist-occultist-scientific based secular-humanist German national socialist leftism and Progressive elitist Americans like Wilson and Sanger who promoted racial Eugenics in the 20th Century.
