This, and I don't think Paul will bother seeking the nomination in 2012. Moreover, politicians hate to admit when they're wrong and endorsing Paul would entail exactly that for GOP lawmakers, considering what he had to say during the primaries.

Huh.

Being Scottish is being a Scottish national, not being from a certain ethnic group.

Really?

The Scottish are widely regarded as an ethnic group.

They fit the definition: An ethnic group is a group of humans whose members identify with each other, through a common heritage that is real or assumed. This shared heritage may be based upon putative common ancestry, history, kinship, religion, language, shared territory, nationality or physical appearance. Members of an ethnic group are conscious of belonging to an ethnic group; moreover ethnic identity is further marked by the recognition from others of a group's distinctiveness. (From wiki)

The Scottish are widely regarded as an ethnic group.

Not in the sense that all of us who consider ourselves Scottish have the same skin colour, and that's what I was replying to above.

Scottish means a person hailing from Scotland. It's called Scotland and Scottish because of the people who live there... the Scots, which is an ethnic group. Just like Irish and Welsh.

So you define ethnicity by skin colour?

Not wholly, but most often when we discuss ethnicity - and when we were doing so above - we're talking about a shared heritage that is much more than just cultural, that has something to do with one's ancestors. This often chimes with skin colour.

Now, we can define ethnicity in a much more broad fashion - South Norwega has done just that - and I've no problem with describing the Scots as an ethnic group in the sense that we have a shared cultural heritage. But what I'm objecting to is the notion that Scots have a shared set of ancestors - i.e., if you're a Scot you've got to be white and descendent from a Celt/Pict/Viking - who all originate from the place we now call Scotland.

And I'm happy with that with the caveats I've discussed above.
