African Americans (also referred to as Black Americans or Afro-Americans) are an ethnic group of Americans (citizens or residents of the United States) with total or partial ancestry from any of the Black racial groups of Africa. The term may also be used to include only those individuals who are descended from enslaved Africans. As a compound adjective the term is usually hyphenated as African-American.
African Americans constitute the third largest racial and ethnic group in the United States (after White Americans and Hispanic and Latino Americans). Most African Americans are of West and Central African descent and are descendants of enslaved blacks within the boundaries of the present United States. On average, African Americans are of 78 percent West African, 19 percent European and 3 percent Native American heritage, with very large variation between individuals. Immigrants from some African, Caribbean, Central American, and South American nations and their descendants may or may not also self-identify with the term.

A TV spot created by Scott Peters for Congress. Brian Bilbray has been alternatively a special interest lobbyist and Congressman. As San Diego City Fire Captain, and Union President, Frank DeClercq puts it, "It's time someone responded to us for a change. Someone like Scott Peters". The spot continues: As a city council member, he pushed for more and experienced [police] officers, and new fire stations. The result? Lower crime rates and faster response times - without raising taxes.
