WASHINGTON – Sen. Elizabeth Warren batted down calls for her to take a DNA test to prove her Native American heritage in an interview that aired Sunday.
“I know who I am. And never used it for anything. Never got any benefit from it anywhere,” Warren said of her ancestry on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
The Massachusetts Democrat has been under increased pressure to provide evidence of her Native American roots, with President Trump repeatedly mocking her as “Pocahontas” as recently as Saturday.
An editorial this month in Massachusetts’s Berkshire Eagle urged Warren to buy a DNA test for $99 to resolve the issue once and for all.
“All the senator needs to do is spit into a tube, wait a few weeks and get her answer,” the paper said.
Asked whether she’d take an ancestry test, Warren said she wants to hold onto the folklore of her parents’ love story...

IIRC, she actually submitted recipes from another (French) cookbook.
“Except for identical twins, sibling DNA will be different. One could show native American and one might not.”
My sister had her DNA done and it showed she had some percentage of Native American. Now, our people from both my father’s side (Germany) and my mother’s side (England) had no connection with North America until the 1840s on my father’s side (and they never ventured any further than New Orleans) and 1947 on my mother’s side (that was when she came to the U.S., at 21). Maybe some Viking raider in the way back sailed over here in the 1300s and snatched up some Indian maiden and impregnated her, and then took the issue back to Europe with him, and that Viking raider was some kin to me. However, I doubt it.
I’ve done extensive genealogical research over the years and got back as far as 1610 on my father’s side, and EVERYONE in that line stayed in Germany until the 1840s, and there is no mention of any dalliances with a dusky princess of the prairies.
I’m shocked...Shocked I tell you! /s
Typical.
That’s a very nice tan... Was it sprayed or from natural sunlight?

Wish she would buy a few new blazers...

Mrs. Warren’s 1984 recipe for Cold Omelets with Crab Meat contains all four of the ingredients listed in Mr. Franey’s 1979 recipe in the exact same portion but lists five additional ingredients. More significantly, her instructions are virtually a word for word copy of Mr. Franey’s instructions from this 1979 article. Both instructions specify the use of a “seven inch Teflon pan.” …
Did original Cherokees even know what crabs were? Not likely.
It's possible that the Cherokees may have traded east to get ocean crabs.
But where would they have traded to get a “seven inch Teflon pan.”?
Send her to South Africa.
They’re in the midst of a drought.
She can dance her way to credibility.
She’s a fraud and knows it. The problem is the good people of Massa-2-s@#* doesn’t know it!!!!
And the reporter jumped all over that. /s
Maybe she is from the Solutrean culture.
Now she is not running in 2020!

And she will continue to refuse to take a DNA test forever. She cannot afford to take one because it would mean the end to her career if the truth comes out.
