Do you think that a study would show that in mixed folks (which is practically everyone in America in some small way), the more European and Asian DNA that person has the higher their IQ?
It's definitely possible. However, the only biology and genetics I know well are from plants, and I know next to nothing about the human genome other than what I'm able to skim from journals and scientists' personal blogs.
The 'American' genome is going to be harder to make any firm inferences about ethnic differences than any long-standing country, for obvious reasons. I am almost totally Scots-Irish/English, for instance, yet I'd be in the same group as Italo-Greeks, which were seperated genetically many thousands of years ago. That goes for just about anybody here.
