For the non believer I have had a dna test that proved I was 5%. I am proud of the little that I do have though. Its is from a great people. The Cherokee Indians.

Well, the other 95% is a great lot more then 5%. Be proud of your blood. You might do some genealogical research on your ancestry. How interesting!!

No. And gahhh, why does EVERYONE in the US go around saying their great great grampa/gramma was a 'fullblooded cherokee' or something like that?? Why?
It's statistically impossible for everyone in this country who goes around saying that say that to actually be telling the truth.
I'm not saying the asker was claiming that, I am just saying, people of the US in general: cut the crap. You probably aren't the great grandchild of some exalted native american chief, and if you actually _are_ one, then you will know exactly the kind of people I am talking about and back me up on it.

1/20 (5%) is not a lot by any stretch of the imagination. Its a "trace".

5% is the same as 5¢ of a dollar.

No... I am 25% Mohawk and I can go to college free because of that. If I was any less I wouldn't get that.

No, actually you are probably less than 5% due to climate virocolonzation.
