I do not believe you will find many instances of Indians referring to themselves as Native American as a matter of routine. That is a term made popular by the White man and basically not dignified by the tribes......and not used. They use Indian....

Or any "African-Americans" who have never even stepped on Afican soil, let alone are from there.
What's worse, because PC-nutcases like to call every black person "African-American", they'll refer to someone with dark skin from say, France for example..."African-American". You never hear "African-French", "African-Spanish", "African-Portuguese" or "African-Brazillian". It would sound ridiculous. I've even heard reporters call people ACTUALLY FROM AFRICA, "African-American" when they've never even been to America.
They're not "African-Americans", they're Americans just as much as I am. This PC stupidity only segregates people even more. I'm a white American, another guy is a black American, but in the end, we're all just Americans. Stop trying to make up names that don't fit just to avoid offending someone. Your idiocy offends me, PC police.
