Ok, I voted 'No'.

I consider myself Anglo-American because I am a multi-generational American who speaks English and has a significant amount of British Isles ancestry.

English American, American person of English heritage, origin, or background

"Anglo-American," colloquial term for an English-speaking American (as opposed to Spanish-speaking or Hispanic Americans) I acknowledge that I have British ancestry, around 50%, speak the English language, and have many cultural influences from British culture. If I was a citizen of the British Commonwealth, I would probably consider myself British. My paternal 6th great grandfather who was a 3rd or 4th generation Englishman and fought as a British loyalist in the Revolution, he was British. However, he lost, and that was 230+ years ago. Anglo-Saxons aren't German, Anglo-Normans aren't French, Mexicans aren't Spanish, and I'm not British.
