Indeed, a "real" American apparently has ancestry in America for at least a century, but under no circumstances in excess of six centuries, nor in Africa more recently than the last Ice Age, though with an exemption for ancestors who were in South Africa during Apartheid and whose ancestors were English or Dutch.Kind of like how they say you may be an American if you are born in the states but just being born there doesn’t make you a *real* American.
Or something.
It seems to be unnecessarily complicated.
