[edit] DNA Test
In the show Lopez Tonight David's DNA test showed he is 63% European and 37% Native American indian.--Anen87 (talk) 21:08, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
- Those tests are not really that scientific. He's not actually native american at all. 97.91.172.232 (talk) 05:19, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

- hugh??? xP DNA IS purely scientific! He is not native american at a cultural level since he did not grew up with it so he is not regarded as a native american comdedian/actor but having 37% Native American indian blood (which is considered a lot) is undeniable, regardless of how he looks!

- Hi. I think the unscientific part comes from that it was for a talk show so it might have been unserious. Also another point to note is that if a person is 3/8th native american, they really should know that they are 3/8th. that means 3 of their great grandparents were native american. It also is very probable that one of his grandparents would be native american (assuming that 2 of the 3 native american grandparents married each other) so from that perspective, it should be treated with skepticism Phil Nolte (talk) 10:14, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

- There are several kinds of "DNA tests". The one used by this show that offers percentages of ethnic groups is not a particularly scientific endeavor and is more about commercialism than anything else. DNA tests are scientific for determining if someone is a parent of a child or close relative, but these tests are not what you think they are. The human genome project thing was only done in 2003. They are still collecting dna samples from the various indiginous groups around the world. They have not figured out how exactly how everything combines with mixed race children. 97.91.172.232 (talk) 04:03, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

- here's a non technical explanation of why that test is not accurate

- So... how about including both sources and letting the readers decide for themselves, instead of endorsing either one? Hearfourmewesique (talk) 17:45, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
