If she has a native American ancestor, it will be noted along with the percentage.

She may not want to know the answer. (We may not either.)

I think the point Trump might try make is whether blue-eyed blond "Indians" are ever discriminated against on the basis of their race, and if not, what is the point of affirmative action programs that give preference to people who are not and can not possibly be discriminated against?

Close to half of the US population has some non-Caucasian DNA so it's not at all uncommon. What's uncommon is blue-eyed blond "Indians" checking the box on the application. BTW, Obama was not the first biracial politician elected to national office in the US.

Did you read the article and listen to the Cherokee Indian lady interviewed by Megyn Kelly, Tywla Barnes? If I were a Cherokee, I’d be outraged. Outraged!

Can you imagine any, and I mean any conservative or republican politician running for office doing this? They’d be skewered. She not only got into a job as a native American, the two schools got federal credit, probably money, because of that.

This is blatant BS!!! And the fact that she’s from Oklahoma means nada... NADA!

The Cherokees Nation and the Delaware Nation have official roles of tribal members. My kids are on it with 1/32nd Cherokee blood. Neither uses it for jobs though. They also have other Indian blood, but are not registered in any other tribe.

If you can trace back your ancestors to members already on the tribal roles, you can become a member.

If Elizabeth Warren had really thought she was Indian and wanted to use it on her job applications, she could have checked into becoming an official member of the tribe. She may not have known that there is an official registration for the tribes. It looks like fraud to me.

My grandma told stories that we had Indian blood in the family, down from a long line of originally French-Canadian people who came down to Indiana in the 1700s. My brother ran with that and posted stuff on Facebook with all sorts of Indian themes. Anyway, I did the Ancestry DNA test, came back zero native American. At least my brother has reduced his “native spirit” type postings.

Elizabeth Warren is the Rachel Dolezal of American Indians.

For the totalitarian elite, we sit down and shut up. What we know about the truth does not matter. They make the rules without such messy things as truth.

Trump should announce he has just FedEx’d a DNA test kit to Warren, then ask when she will publicly do the cheek swab. Maybe get Mark Furman to process the kit.

Producing a DNA test would solve the issue. Even if she had less than 1% American Indian ancestry, much of the controversy would be dismissed.

It’s on the order of obama’s birth.

That's right she didn't. Look at this: Warren did not meet either part of the test, and even if she believed her alleged family lore, Warren should have known that she could not show cultural identification. Warren has refused to release her personnel records which would contain the forms she signed. Warren admitted that she did not meet the legal qualifications to be considered a racial minority Harvard and U. Penn also refuse to release these employment records. As reported by The Boston Globe, Warren’s self-identification as Native American may have caused U. Penn. and Harvard Law Schools to make false federal filings with regard to faculty diversity. Neither organization will release the records Detailed genealogical investigation by a group of Cherokee genealogists showed that Warren had no Cherokee or other Native American ancestry. The findings are set forth at the blog Thoughts From Polly’s Grandaughter which based the research on over one hundred primary sources,and detailed the findings: The team and I have done an exhaustive search on the genealogy of Elizabeth Warren. We have researched ALL of her ancestral lines, but have only posted those she claimed were Indian here in the blog. None of her direct line ancestors are ever shown to be anything other than white, dating back to long before the Trail of Tears.

This absolutely cracks me up. It's why I love Trump. You may teach him, but you will never tame him:

The furor over Trump’s assaults on the impartiality of a Latino judge had just begun to subside when he lobbed two tweets Friday morning responding to Warren, who had lambasted him as a "thin-skinned, racist bully" in a speech the previous evening.

"Pocahontas is at it again!" Trump wrote in one. "Goofy Elizabeth Warren, one of the least productive U.S. Senators, has a nasty mouth."

[Snip]

The response to the Pocahontas remarks have been mixed and in many cases muted - a sign of how jittery GOP leaders are still trying to find their comfort level with his rhetoric.

[Snip]

Romney told CNN on Friday that he was worried Trump's language could lead to "trickle-down racism" in the country.

When asked why he persists in calling Warren "Pocahontas" and what he makes of the alarm it has caused among some Republicans, Trump responded bluntly in a statement Friday: "Because she is a nasty person, a terrible U.S. Senator, and it drives her crazy."

My grandmother told me that her grandmother was born in France. That does not make me French and I do not wear a beret. I do admit I like French Fries though.

Notice that all those who claim Native American roots alway choose the Cherokee, Iroquois or other more “peaceful” tribes. No one wants to have the murderous Mescalero Apache or the cannibal Karankawa tribal roots,

Yes, but if it were true, then you can truthfully say you have French blood.

Unlike Goofy Elizabeth, who claims she’s Indian because of high cheek bones....

But, I can’t understand why no one calls her out. She not only claims that there is heritage or a history, like yours, of being told she was part INdian,

BUT THE LYING SOS ACTUALLY APPLIED FOR WORK AT HARVARD AND PENN AS AN INDIAN MINORITY!!!!!!!
