If we are going by that definition it is possible that I could be considered to be Jewish since I know my Grandmother would have been considered Jewish by the Nazi's, (she is 1/8 Jewish based on what my mother told me,) had she been in Germany, but she was Australian, so she was far out their reach, so it is possible, but I most definitely do not fell Jewish and I doubt I look it either. I don't know if it was because my grandmother's mother was the daughter of the Jew or not, so I would claim any Jewishness in me.
