76. That depends,
One of my parents is a reservation born American Indian from Montana who had a father rumored to be an escaped convict from St. Louis named McCall, which I believe would be Scottish, but the name I was born to is decidedly Irish. My other parent was born in Oklahoma, and may have been a descendant of Irish immigrants who participated in the great land race, but that's just my guess, mostly in consideration of blue eyed red headed, fairish features, family name there is Shoemake?

So I've spent most of my life as what some have described as indi-ish. Which works for me as political description too, so it was kind of convenient.
