Presuming she was a fullblood (giving you every benefit), that makes you 1/16. But here's the rub: you know that "Blackfoot" isn't even a tribe, right? It's -- at best -- a regional colloquialism of
four tribes only one of which is indigenous to the United States.
In sum, not only do you not know a damned thing about American Indians, you know even less about you own history, he who is most likely
Canadian.

Could you be more specific? While there are lots of things to lament about about our current global culture, what you espouse isn't one them. Were that the case, living conditions would be different.

I know you're not very smart. (And, apparently, know less about yourself than the rest of us do.)

You're just an elitist and entitlement racist.
Go back to Canada or Europe, wherever you're from: you're embarrassing the rest of us trying to be American.
