Much of legal system and culture derive from our British heritage. Furthermore, for at least the past 100 years, GB has been are staunchest ally. Saying we have an "Anglo Saxon heritage" is, therefore, completely accurate.

As such, and given Obama's open snubs toward Great Britain, I'd say Romney's comment about the president not understanding our shared heritage is on the money.

Which probably explains why Obamatarians are trying to play the race card.
