Excerpts (btw, Margi knew Sandra Bullock, her German mother and American father):
Add to that list today the two-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback (2005 & 2008) Ben Roethlisberger of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Oh, and add these three presidents:
Hoover (whose presidency the Jew Federal Reserve destroyed by starting and prolonging the Great Depression:
)
Eisenhower (I know, I know, fought for the wrong team, but was germanic in his perfect planning, and gave a very important speech at the end of his presidency)
.
….and this guy, forget his name….

……I got me a German American girl
Her ancestor’s name was Jakob Hochstätter, which over the years became “Huffstickler.” 😉 ….as in “stickler for details” 😉 It has to be right.
Margi translates from German, sings opera in German, and has sojourned in Deutschland often, especially in Austria, Hessen and in still wonderfully white Saxony-Anhalt in eastern Germany.

File that look under….

I myself am a mere 1/16th German (though germanic in a broader sense via my Norman and Anglo-Saxon ancestors), but my German smidgen was a doozy — my blond, blue-eyed great-grandmother Ida May Berlin. 🙂 (or is “Berlin” Irish?)

What percentage German are YOU? One in three white Americans is mostly German.
In 2016 the blunt, arrogant, determined German-American Trump carried the big-population German Belt (almost getting Minnesota, too) and the South to win.
I believe, John that there some great debate as to whether the official language of the fledgling United states should be English or German?
Actually, not really. The fledgling US in 1788 was 80% of British stock, with just the British colony and later US State of Pennsylvania being heavily German. The other twelve colonies consisted of English folks, plus Northern Irish, Scots, Welsh, and some Irish — all English-speaking. There was no rejection ever of our proud British heritage; just of the arrogant tyranny toward the “colonists” which the British ruling class insisted on.
Many of the men who fought against Britain in 1776 had fought FOR Britain in the Seven Years War (called here the “French and Indian War”) of 1754–63, just 13 years before, including George Washington himself!
Founding Father Ben Franklin was also a British patriot during the earlier war, and represented the 13 colonies in Parliament in London, since Parliament (stupidly, arrogantly, shortsightedly and disastrously) had refused to allow the three million British Americans to elect Members of Parliament, saying we were mere colonists.
And it forbade us any factories to make things, not even window glass, insisting that England must manufacture everything. The Americans should just send raw materials over, like wood.
Madness. By the end, we were treated just marginally better than the Irish. Britain could easily have kept America if it had realized, as did the great Tory MP Edmund Burke, that we only wanted, and deserved, equal rights with our British brothers! (After losing the US, and realizing its folly, Britain was much more considerate of the white Canadians, Australians and Kiwis, who made no violent effort to become independent as a result.)
“Ego causes suffering,” as the great Aryan Siddhartha Gautama realized 2,500 years ago, the man later called “the Buddha.” 🙁
