Anglo Saxson or Irish do NOT make up 90% of white men. Think about all the other possiblities for white men ...Germen, Greek, Italian, Russian, Polish, Romanian, Yugoslovian, French, Austrian ...shall i continue???

Hyperion: Answer the question, there is nothing BS about it. If you dont believe it prove me wrong. I may not excel in English but you have no skills in Math. Any 1st grader could realize that the probability of getting the same exact demographic 43 out of 43 time is very very unlikely..

The point is there are no people of European or any other decent (part or whole) just Anglo Saxson (which is basically England) or Irish. Most of the white people I know (myself included) have other roots (part or whole) than Irish or Anglo Saxson. Our presidents don't. I find this very unusual.

The United States was founded by, for the most part, people from England. Then came the French, the Germans, the Irish , and the Scots. All from Western Europe and Great Britain...all white. This preponderance of WASP Presidents can be accredited to this. Perhaps now, since the demographics have changed so much, we might actually have a Mulatto President...AKA, Barack Obama.

Anglo Saxson or Irish includes about 90% of the white men in America.
Yes, they do, even if they are not PURE Anglo Saxson, most white males are part Anglo Saxson

Only 1 out of 43 has been Irish. Since 20% of the country is Irish, that is under-representation, as much as any other group.

Maybe its because the country majority is of anglo saxon or white European decent.

This isn't a conspiracy, it was just the best choices so far.
Can you name one good woman candidate for president?
Geraldine Ferraro? Hillary Clinton?
Let's elect hillary and let another clinton make a joke out of the whitehouse.

It is neither coincidence nor conspiracy. It's the way people have voted for the last 220 years.
