Elizabeth Warren is not a citizen of the Cherokee Nation.
Elizabeth Warren is not enrolled in the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians.
And Elizabeth Warren is not one of the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee.
Nor could she become one, even if she wanted to.
Despite a nearly three week flap over her claim of "being Native American," the progressive consumer advocate has been unable to point to evidence of Native heritage except for a unsubstantiated thirdhand report that she might be 1/32 Cherokee. Even if it could be proven, it wouldn't qualify her to be a member of a tribe: Contrary to assertions in outlets from The New York Times to Mother Jones that having 1/32 Cherokee ancestry is "sufficient for tribal citizenship," "Indian enough" for "the Cherokee Nation," and "not a deal-breaker," Warren would not be eligible to become a member of any of the three federally recognized Cherokee tribes based on the evidence so far surfaced by independent genealogists about her ancestry.

Thus was born the legend of Walking Eagle (too full of it to fly), and her presidential running mate Ill Eagle.
Somewhere in the family, be it my brother, Uncle, Cousin, someone has an old picture of my Great Grandmother on my father’s side squatting in front of a mud hut somewhere in the South. I saw the picture at my Grandmother’s house over sixty years ago in my youth. Grandma had been married to Great Grandma’s son whom was quite “Native American” in appearance although half Scottish.
There is no way I would say to some Cherokee “Yo Bro”. I’ve never lived their lifestyle. Never had to put up with their grief, etc., therefore how in the ‘H’ can I declare because I have a scant amount of their blood in my history that I am “native American”.
Warren is a user, and abuser. She used the scant amount of “Native American” blood she may have in her history for personal gain, but never lived the lifestyle, or their grief. She found it worked once for her, and like everything Democrat is using it again to work the malleable for her personal gain.
hard to read that with the capital letters, ill eagle ...
So, see used affirmative action ploy to get her position and promotion. She should be run out of office for this. Alas, she is a Democrat and race is a just a state of mind.
What? She identifies as a Native American! I did that when I was 8.

Elizabeth Warren Ancestor Rounded Up Cherokees For Trail of Tears
Interesting how she has no proof that she is Native American...no artifacts, no records...just her word about her Aunt commenting about a picture and high cheek bones ...Sheesh!
The interesting thing is that her great great Grandfather was involved in the March of Death, when they forced the Indians to relocate to Oklahoma
One of the GUARDS?
I used to have an Indian girlfriend. Am I an Indian?
“Me kind of Indian, or Come to Our Casino type of Indian?”
I heard that she’s related to the Dynasty boys too. Only, that is, if she can share in the proceeds on duck whistles...
My favorite Indian name is one that was killed at Little Big Horn. His name is on one of the plaques located at the battlefield.

She just made it up to advance her career in liberal academia. She’s a liar who took advantage of bean counting laws that made it advantageous for the school to have X number of Indians on the payroll. They reporter her Indian status on documents filed with the federal government.
It also tells you something else about her, that she believes race is the be all and end all. She was unhappy merely being white, which is what she is.
Not exotic enough, not “in” enough for her. She’s sick.
Just saying! :-)
A lying racist bitch who games the race-favors system then hypocritically calls out others for fraud greed and “racism”
She represents exactly what is wrong with politics
Yes.
She and Harvard made the fake claim and used it to their advantages.
She is discredited thoroughly.
Nothing she says should ever even be answered as she has disqualified herself.
Pochahantas. Fake-ahontas.
Sack-of-a-lies-a.
Chief crazy horse or Geronimo would not be pleased
Trump is more Native American than Lieawatha, he actually owned a Casino.
Exactly. She should just go get a simple DNA test and solve the question. But she won’t, because she’s not, and she knows it.
DNA tests widely available, to detect Indian ancestry.
