Race, culture and assimilation

Most of our ancestors came here after the whole assimilate the Indians idea was replaced by removal and extermination. So I'd say the likelihood of ol Grandpappy getting it on with a squaw is minimal. They always claim that they are part Cherokee. Is it because that's the only nation they have heard of? How come I never meet a guy that is half Nez Perce? No Comanches. No Delaware. No Crow. Me personally, I'd dream up a Lakota ancestor. I just find that to be a comical element of American culture.

No lie, I was told my entire life I was Native American.  Cherokee, Blackfoot, Shawnee and Sioux.  Come to find out, I have 0% Native American DNA. 

The only reason I am Native is because I was born in Ohio.
