Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) says “no one, not even the president of the United States will ever” be able to take away her purported American Indian heritage. After releasing a 2018 midterm election October surprise on Monday, wherein the liberal lawmaker released the findings of a DNA test showing she is likely less than one percent American Indian, Warren released a short, five-minute documentary video in which she says Trump cannot “take” her ancestry from her.
“Some people have questioned my heritage and my family history,” Warren says. “Maybe they do it to insult me … Maybe they do it because they think politics is a blood sport. But my parents were real people, the love they shared, the struggles they endured, the family they built, the story they lived, will always be etched on my heart.”
As Breitbart News noted, Warren is actually less Native American than many white, Hispanic, and black Americans. Experts with 23andMe say the average black American is nearly one percent Native American, while the average Hispanic American is 18 percent Native American. Additionally, about eight percent of white Americans in Louisiana, for example, are at least one percent Native American.
Warren’s American Indian ancestry is so small that she would is not eligible to join the country’s three federally-recognized Cherokee tribes, Breitbart News reported.

What do you need? The link works fine.
Can anybody take away something from someone that they never had to start with?
/rhetorical question
Warren’s “American Indian Heritage” dates back about 250 years (10 generations ago, according to the DNA test). That seems like a rather tenuous connection to get all worked up about, especially when you consider that in all likelihood most Americans with ancestry in the New World dating that far back probably have an Indian or two in the woodpile.
Neither can anyone take away my knighthood from the Queen of England; I don’t have one.
Warren: the Indian giver that keeps on giving.
Waterboard her for a few hours , see what she says
The funniest thing is she thinks people care about this.
Keep digging, Granny!
A picture to draw attention to. The song is perfect for this fraud
Stupid White Squaw speak heap cow dung.
Go for it you moonbat from hell. Explain your minority status to Harvaad.
I wish Trump would test and have a larger percentage.
He would brag that “so good you would not believe it”.
That's right, all I need is my heritage. Just this heritage ... And this ashtray...and paddle game. - My heritage and ashtray and the paddle game and that's all I need... And this remote control. - My heritage, the ashtray, the paddle game, and the remote control, and that's all I need... And these matches. - My heritage, the ashtray, and these matches, and the remote control, and the paddle ball... And this lamp. - My heritage, the ashtray, this paddle game, and the remote control, and the lamp, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one...
She was trying to take another Trump success off the front page of the paper. She should have traveled to Jamestown to make the announcement!
Actually, the tribe can take it away. My good friend who is 25% Indian is considered an Indian by Indians, is eligible for benefits, healthcare, and is able to awn on Indian reservations, some of which are quite beautiful.. His children are not, as their mother is 100% caucasian. Genetics is a more complicated science than this, of course, but these are general guidelines.
No tribe would consider. Fauxcohantas an Indian.
.... Well .... Heck ... I took the same DNA test that she did and found out I was .0019% Eggplant. So you know this stuff is absolutely worth going to War over .....
LOLOL!! Perfect!
Can’t lose what you don’t have.
