Did some googling; genealogists who happen to be Cherokee have debunked Fauxcahontas’ claims, saying that “both sides of her family were white going back to well before the Trail of Tears.”

For what it’s worth, Dad was a Tulsa native whose grandfather was Dr. J.C.W. Bland, whose wife’s mother was a full blooded Creek woman who survived the Trail of Tears.

Dad’s sister married a part Cherokee, their kids called themselves “Cherocreeks”.

Anyway, I have twice the Indian blood in truth as Crockajawea claims to have, 1/16th vs 1/32nd.

For what it’s worth.

My wife's family is part descent from Indians and by the time they left on their last visit they were all making fun of her.

I think I miss you point. Making fun of who?

What's uncommon is blue-eyed blond "Indians" checking the box on the application.

A lot of whites are checking the hispanic block these days. I received a computerized racial/ethnic breakdown of my 700+ member navy squadron the other day and was shocked at how many white people with anglo surnames that I work with every day self-identified as "hispanic" on their official military records.

Personally, I'm all for it. Starve the beast.

Yes lots of Okies have AmerIndian ancestry, but if she wanted to be seen in our IHS clinic she needs a CDIB card.

And if she got a job under federal affirmative action guidelines she was supposed to prove her ancestry.

DNA might not work, since the descendentsvof Cherokee slaves are tribal members, but may not pass a DNA test.

DNA test not required. Cherokee genealogists have done the math and Warren is zero Cherokee. She had an ancestor who shot an Indian for not being respectful (the Indian was drunk at the time) and she has an ancestor who rounded Indians up and forced them into the infamous Trail of Tears. Of actual Indian blood she has not a speck.

The truth is that Warren swears she was told by parents and grandparents that she was part Cherokee. She swears she believed them. So the explanation is, honest mistake. I don’t buy it for a millisecond, but that’s the story.

Trump is more American Indian than Warren. Proof: Trump built and operated an Indian casino near Indio, California.

She claimed it as status to get extra privleges at whatever elite school she was at. She stated she was Cherokee. The keepers of the enrollment records have proven she was never enrolled.

This is a big deal because if you are an enrolled member of a tribe you get certain considerations that others don’t

Doesn’t make it so. She claimed a grandmother was Cherokee. None of the tribal records show her family. To the contrary census records show grand parents as white

“Can someone please tell me why no one in the media, once and for all, will uncover this lady’s criminal behavior?”

Because they’re paid off traitors to the Republic set on demise of the country.

...she is a member of the protected class: Liberal, Female, Democrat...

Exactly, and by adding "Native American" she gets to add Minority and Oppressed to here resume.

“Trump is more American Indian than Warren. Proof: Trump built and operated an Indian casino near Indio, California.”

I think of him as a Viking chieftan. On election day I would like to devise a voting process where regardless of presidential outcome his leadership of the unfettered Nordic American tribe is decided, if he was willing to accept.

I’m sure the skraelings would fume.

I agree, but she applied for positions as a minority...ie Indian ancestry. Harvard and Penn. This is dead wrong, and the pulic should be outraged....

Yeah, and Obamas parents met on a tribute March to MLK on some bridge in Mississippi, when it was impossible, as King was still alive.

So maybe she needs a new nickname to fit with her false Indian genealogy - Indian Killer.

I have an idea: Fauxcahontas should be allowed to turn Harvard into an enormous casino. Revenues to benefit real members of Cherokee Nation. Warren and Harvard would finally be doing something useful.
