I generally play the race that fits best with the lore of the game, I use to play Nord in Morrowind until I looked up the Lore behind Nerevar and concluded that Nerevarine being a Dark Elf would be the only race to really make sense, so what I did was create a Dark Elf race variant with Nord Traits instead of the typical DE traits (Got the idea from Symmachus in the real Barenziah books, as he was an unusually large Dark Elf rumored to have Nord blood in him)
Oblivion I played either a Nord or an Imperial, both kind of work in that regard in the game.
Skyrim, Dragonborn can really only be a Nord in my opinion, at best an Imperial with one Nord parent for an actual Skyrim connection, I just cant bring myself to play other races.
(And in my experience I can't stand Breton's despite their helpful powers)
Long story short: Nord.
