She was 0.0% Indian, if she was .01% she would've released the test
Warren is such a fraud!
“Grey Beaver”
Not a mental image I want to associate with Fauxcahontas....
*barf*
“It would make me 1/32nd or 1/16th Indian. But I never in my life would consider identifying as a “minority” or claiming Indian status. Its a scam for whites who want to glom onto the identity politics bandwagon.”
Exactly. Very well put.
My Pa looked and acted a great deal like Jimmy Stewart. Jimmy did a movie called “Mr. Hobbs Takes a Vacation” wherein his grandson called him “Boom-pa”
My brothers and I would tease Pa by calling him Boom-pa all the time. He would protest but I knew he secretly enjoyed it.
Kamala is not eligible.
Run kamala. romney, McCain and billary never campaigned on Obama’s eligibility, trump will campaign on kamala’s
It's funny Fauxcahontis never has mentioned this.

“Speaking of Brown. He sure has disappeared from the landscape. Good riddance, BTW!”
He’s the ambassador to New Zealand. He’s been doing a pretty good job according to most people.
Kind of hard to screw that gig up.
Buffalo - trying to convince others of something w/o evidence.
Native Americans owned black slaves. There was plenty of opportunity. I've known people who thought they were part native American because their ancestors were born in the Indian Nation. In 1907 it became Oklahoma, the 46th state.
“...my pappaw—had high cheekbones like all of the Indians do...”
My German side had high cheek bones too....from the Mongol invasion.
All liberal, progressive, communists, are liars and manipulators. That is the only way they can achieve the power and control they desire. This is just another example of that dysfunctional behavior so prevalent in the liberal class. If she learned anything from her “Mom and Pop” is was how to lie and get away with it.
And ex slaves of Cherokees were considered members of the tribe until they hit the big bucks with land rights over the Arkansas river and casinos,,, then it turned into ‘sorry,you’re not on the rolls so you’re not one of us’
“...that she thought she was 1/32 Cherokee..”
She’s 100% horses ass.
This might all be overlooked...except to claim minority status for a benefit changes the picture. In order to claim you are Native American in order to gain preference for a government contract or job for example you have to be able to prove it. The only proof recognized is tribal membership. It is pretty easy to know and to prove if you are or are not a member of a tribe. I think anyone claiming minority status for benefit needs to be held to the same standard. If she claimed that status for a job- according to some reports she did not but if she did they should have held her to that standard. She has claimed that status in public many times to help her political career (votes, standing with minorities) so she is indeed doing it for benefit. She needs to show membership in a tribe or shut up about it.
Many of us have NA heritage, if you want to find out how far that goes try to join the tribe your ancestors were. You will find out quickly that most tribes do not care about your family stories, only about tribal records. If you cannot show a direct family link to an actual tribal member to show you qualify for membership you are out of luck.
When I did my family genealogy work I found pretty credible evidence that I have a Cherokee ancestor. I found it very interesting but that is all it is, not of any legitimate claim. An uncle of my mother’s tried to claim tribal eligibility many years ago and was denied even though the family name is very unusual and there was a person of that name on the official Dawes Roll and there was some documentation to show a connection. He did not have enough evidence and was denied. Most tribes now expect that all of the concrete connections have been made or cannot be made so the basic rule is if you don’t have at least one parent that is a tribal member then you are likely out of luck. Some tribes have closed their membership meaning if you could prove beyond a shadow of doubt you were eligible if your family is not already enrolled you are out of luck.
If she wanted to scam minority status she should claim to be a minority that does not require documentation. I am sure she didn’t think she would be believed. Well I for one don’t believe this either.
“Thinking you’re a minority person is one thing, but bamboozling people to get goodies is something else altogether.”
Rachel Warren.
“Waiting for the right time to show her cards.”
As if that would be the tie breaker.
Yes, to be legally Native American you have to have that pesky census number.
