Answer: was native born, white, Anglo-Saxon, and Protestant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Towards the end of the nineteenth century, the prominent ethnic group in the United States were descendants of the first English settlers which therefore made them Anglo-Saxon, white and Protestant.

They therefore comprised most of the middle class which is traditionally occupied by the main ethnic group. Even till this day, white, Anglo-Saxon descendants are quite rich and affluent.
