As an aside, in the 16th, 17th and early 18th centuries the voyage to North America took between 60 and 80 days because of the prevailing winds. That resulted in a considerable cost, very difficult conditions, and fewer women than men making the journey. Alternatives for men making the journey included returning to Europe (at great expense) to marry, paying for a bride's travel, adopting a gay lifestyle (NTTAWWT) or marrying/cohabitating with a native woman.

Guess what many did?

There are quite a few blond, blue-eyed "Indians" around, most of whom would never dream of checking the box on a Harvard application.

Warren may be able to pull out a DNA chart poster and "prove" her Native American ancestry, and the MSM will (again) portray Trump as sexist/racist. But she's a blue eyed, blond Indian! Was she ever discriminated against because she was "Indian"? Could she possibly have been? I thought that countering discrimination was the entire point of affirmative action programs, not to give an advantage to some applicants who couldn't possibly ever have been harmed by discrimination.

(Warren would not be the first "Native American" VP. That was Charles Curtis, who was bi-racial and was actually raised on an Indian reservation. Affirmative action programs had not been invented when he was elected. He still carried more states than BHO.)
