Ethnicity not a factor in Elizabeth Warren’s rise in law
Boston Globe ^ | 9/01/18 | Annie Linskey

Posted on 09/02/2018 8:05:40 AM PDT by Libloather

**SNIP**

The Globe examined hundreds of documents, many of them never before available, and reached out to all 52 of the law professors who are still living and were eligible to be in that Pound Hall room at Harvard Law School. Some are Warren’s allies. Others are not. Thirty-one agreed to talk to the Globe — including the law professor who was, at the time, in charge of recruiting minority faculty. Most said they were unaware of her claims to Native American heritage and all but one of the 31 said those claims were not discussed as part of her hire. One professor told the Globe he is unsure whether her heritage came up, but is certain that, if it did, it had no bearing on his vote on Warren’s appointment.

Warren’s political enemies have long pushed a narrative that her unsubstantiated claims of Native American heritage turbocharged her legal career, enabling an unlikely rise from being a commuter college graduate to holding an endowed professorship at the top of the Ivy League. They point to her career timeline and the fact that her major professional advances — to the University of Pennsylvania and then to Harvard — came after she began formally identifying as Native American, a distant descendant of Cherokee and Delaware tribes.

**SNIP**

Not until she had been teaching at Penn for two years did she authorize the university to change her personnel designation from white to Native American, the records show.

“Please tell me the difference between Liawatha’s rise to power and Rachel Dolezal’s rise to power in the NAACP.”

Dipwad Rachel says she has IDENTIFIED as black since being

a little girl— Fauxahontas started later in life, and
as far as I know did not start...has not gone to tanning booths to change her skin color— LOL

It would be great if these 2 ran as president and VP!!

Funny how the Boston Globe didn’t examine or even attempt to examine “hundreds of documents” related to Barack Obama’s college experience.

Let me see if I understand this.

If she’s 23/24ths White, that doesn’t make her White.

If she’s 01/24ths Native American, that makes her Native American.

Sure glad to have that cleared up.

This proves nothing. They are all probably lying. That was my thought. Why would should we trust liberal university people, they're into taqiyya even more than radical muslims.

Baloney,

Harvard was actually publicly touting her as an Native American and an example of their commitment to diversity.

She is a fraud who abused affirmative action programs to get a position she does not deserve. Her qualifications as legal scholar are also pretty dubious

All of this could be solved with a simple DNA test, eh Liz?

I has worked well with Mormon claims about American Indians.

If you can self-identify with a sexual orientation then why not an ethnic orientation?

Pure BS...

The witch used 'the American Indian' bit as a way to push herself to the top ... because it worked.

Now liberal elites are disavowing the influence of the lie - attempting to give Warren credibility 'on her own merits' not the pity party cheap shot that was the truth of her rise to power...

Elites backing the witch must thing the American people are too stupid to see the lie - the motive - and the vileness involved... shame on them.
