Native American Indians have East Eurasian genes, Ancient North Eurasian genes and South Asian genes and therefore they do have genes from Asia.  Some Native Americans have Austronesian genes because Polynesians were able to settle and interbreed with them on the coastal areas of the Americas.  Native Americans migrated out of Siberia several thousands of years ago and ever since then there has been some amount of genetic drifting which makes them slightly different from the present day people of Siberia. Several people today identify themselves having Native American genes whether they are pure or mixed.  However geographically speaking they are actually not Asians.

Native Americans come from Asia but they are now their own unique race because they evolved seperately from Asians. Its like with the human race which originally came from Africa but we formed seperate breeds due to adaptation to new climates and terrain outside Africa although mama Africa is where we are from.
