The Confederate Mind (Elizabeth Warren)

National Review ^ | 3/20/2018 | Victor Davis Hanson

Progressives such as Elizabeth Warren resurrect the race-based thinking of the antebellum South: ‘One drop’ and you’re a bona fide minority. Senator Elizabeth Warren has doubled down on her insistence that she is Native American.

THE NEW ONE-DROP FIXATION

In her past incarnations, she probably used that yarn in hopes of helping her win a law professorship at Harvard, which touted her as the law school’s first indigenous-American professor (and others apparently referenced her as Harvard Law’s “first woman of color”). She has refused to back down (and also refused to take a DNA test), even after Native American genealogists disputed her claim.

But what if indeed the pink and blond Warren were found to have 1/32nd or even 1/16th Native American “blood”? Why would that artifact magically make her “Indian,” much less a victim of something or someone, or at least outfitted with a minority cachet?

Does she have an idea of the absurdity of current progressive race obsessions and their creepy pedigrees? In wartime Western Europe, one of the justifications for making Jews wear yellow stars was that it was otherwise impossible to determine whether they were Jews at all, which of course made the entire Nazi edifice of supposed overt racial inferiority a nightmarish joke.

We must never let the Pocahontas thing go. Never, never, never. Never let up, never give her a moment’s peace. Keep the boot on her throat until she is utterly gone, back to Harvard, out of politics forever.

Hypocrisy, racism and stupidity ARE the modern American left.

Of course, George Zimmerman is one eighth black, three eighths South American native, and half white.

That was enough white to make him a white supremacist.
