I thought Warren’s Indian name was Princess LieALot or is that Obama’s?
Having to deal with a diet of fry bread and Buffalo must have been difficult.
“It was never easy for me, I was born a poor, Indian child.”
I would have doubts she wrote any of this and may have just rehashed some previous writings given her history of plagiarism may well have copied other parts.
