Thank you for that clarification!
While I can trace family back to Scotland, Ireland, France, England, Wales, other European countries, and Russia, I don't call myself a "Scotts-American", a "Scots-Irish-American", or a "EurAsian-American." I am an American. JUST an American. Like that TV commercial with all those people of different shades and shapes, all claiming their commonality - AMERICAN!
