Lisa See as "Chinese-American"

edit

although the author herself is identifying herself (for marketing reasons) as 'Chinese-American,' the problem with identifying a person of 1/8th extraction (and 7/8th not Chinese) as the category is that it leads to such situation as identifying Barack Obama as "Irish-American" (because of his 1/8th Irish ancestry). Generally, most people consider Barack Obama the first African-American President. -Samsara9 (talk) 02:43, 21 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
