White? Many early Americans looked rather "white", the Kennewick man looked very white.

The first people from Europe may have been pre-clovis people. Due to an ice age they had a culture similar to that of the Inuit which enabled them to travel the shortened distance across the ocean which of course had a large glacial covering it.

It is possible that early Irish explorers had reached North America, but the evidence is not as strong as that for Leif.

Lief Ericson and his crew can take credit for being the first Europeans in North America.

Leif Erikson. Christopher Columbus just received credit for it. Most schools teach Christopher Columbus discovered America, but that's not true. It was a black man.

Does he deserve credit for discovering America?

Who? Christopher Columbus? He was not the first to dicover America. Much earlier examples include the Native Americans and Leif Erikson, a viking who discovered America long before Colombus. Christopher Columbus just brought Europeans to America. He 'rediscovered' America, per se. He deserves credit for bring colonists to America, not discovering it.
