Errr...because you speak English ?

we do speak english, and I guess we would make a big deal out of it but we're the greatest and most powerful country on earth so we don't have to (unlike canada, australia, and new zealand lel)

It's because we're white, we speak English and we have a lot of British ancestry.

They are Jewish by birthright.

Look back over the list of Presidents. Nearly all have surnames originating in the UK. The meme about Wasps traditionally holding all the power is true.

It's exaggerated. The truth is the greatest percentage of ancestry is British, but it tends to be overlooked because it's sort of the default and not as interesting as German or Irish or whatever. Most people are mixed anyway, so they just go with what's the most interesting for "muh heritage" purposes.

India has the most English speakers in the world. Are they Anglo?

That's because a ton of people don't report their British ancestry, because European immigrants (especially Germans, Irish, and Italians) came here and formed their cultural identities. As a result, people here today would rather view their ethnicities as something with personality rather than boring old British, which was always sort of the standard. I think lingering anti-British sentiment from the Revolution feeds into that, because people then kind of purged themselves of their British identity and created an American one. This leads to a lot of people (especially in the South) to report their ethnicity as "American" rather than Scottish or something of the like.

It's actually quite hard to know because white Americans are mixed as fuck

But it seems like the largest European migrations were, in order:

>German
>Ulster Scots/"Scotch Irish"
>Irish
>Legitimate English
>Italians
>Scots
>Jews (mostly from Russia and Germany)
>Poles
>Scandinavians
>Dutch

In addition, there are indigenous French, Dutch, and Spanish minorities from territories annexed in the 19th century and earlier
