Obviously, there is a wide variety of opinion within a very expansive range of "Italian-Americanness." It's hard to put the guy in Queens who grew up with an immigrant parent whose native language was a Neapolitan dialect in the same demographic soup as Jared Lombardo from Naperville who has never heard a word of Italian outside of a Sopranos episode in his life. To be sure.

There's some data on this from Calandra, in any case.
