On his radio show this morning, Glenn Beck was discussing the census and the term “negro” which appeared on it. He then went on a tangent on the definition of the word African-American. Here’s what he said.

African-American is a bogus, PC, made-up term. I mean, that’s not a race. Your ancestry is from Africa and now you live in America.
