But he doesn't have German ethnicity...? His ancestors moved to the US in the 19th century.
- manuelabeledo 5y agoI guess I should have said German "genes"?
- hef19898 5y agoI know the US is somewhat obsessed with ancestry and that it can be figured by genes. Being German myself I can tell you there is nothing like German genes. Or French genes, or any other European nation as far as that is concerned.
- manuelabeledo 5y agoI understand your point, and yes, there is a somewhat unhealthy obsession with “heritage” in the US.
