    Real Anglo-saxons lived many centuries ago, nowhere people are mainly of "anglo-saxon" descent, Its usually refered Anglo-saxon = Native English speaking, not related to race.

    He has an Irish influence, but something looks 'off' and uniquely American about him.

    If you see a random crowd of White americans from all over the country, would you think of them being physically wise closer to Brits/Irish or the Germans.
    British/Irish, or a general "north European" mix.

    White Americans are a mix of everything European. British, German, Irish, Scando, French, Italian, Slavic, etc.

    The language is, but the phenotype distinction between English and German people is, if anything, even greater than the (imo much overrated) phenotype distinction between Spanish and Italian people, as I discuss here.
