U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren has her eyes set on the 2020 presidential race, but the controversy surrounding her claims of Native American ancestry may have cost her political future, RealClearPolitics associate editor A.B. Stoddard argued Monday night on the "Special Report" All-Star panel.

In October, Warren released the findings of a DNA test that show that she may be 1/1,024th Native American, in a bid to quiet her critics. She had been accused of claiming she had Native American heritage to advance her career, something President Trump has repeatedly suggested.
Stoddard ... expressed that Warren's deflection from the ancestry controversy isn't good enough since it was "truly a debacle."
"It showed what her political judgment is really like. And it's one thing to just be on the Senate floor or the campaign trail in 2016, have a national network of support, have a good message. It's another to make a huge blunder, sort of taking Trump's bait ... but yeah, she has a bad story on this issue," Stoddard told the panel. "She brings the video out in late October, two weeks before the midterms, steps on the Democrats' message. Its completely selfish and sort of self-absorbed and tone-deaf, and then she gets dissed by the Cherokee Nation. It was a disaster and Democrats were furious. And they believe that it was a fatal blow."

Come on Lizzie ... don't let this minor setback slow you down ... you're the best Rat in the race ... ignore the Fox News hack ... you go girl ... !!
Her economic policy is, Lets shut down the banks!
I call her Chief Talking Bull.
Here's photographic evidence that you need to stop your Freepers from laughing at Gray Beaver's Cherokee credentials ...
If she got treated even a small fraction of the way Trump has been we’ll have to rebuild Danvers State Asylum.
Doesn’t everyone have a batty aunt or third cousin who was smart enough to go to college but is confused about her ass and the hole in the ground?
I want to see the documents she submitted to Harvard to support her claim of Indian ancestry when she got her teaching job there. They will be as hard to get as Obama’s applications to Harvard for admission or financial aid.
Sadly I fear shell be the Jeb of 2020 and be humiliated in the primaries.
I say sadly as I hope the Dummycrats are stupid enough to pick her to face Trump. President Trump will win at least 47 states
Here’s the thing about the primary system....Iowa ‘matters’. Warren’s selling power in Iowa? I don’t think it really adds up. She can’t connect to the locals, and she’s bound to pull a third-place finish. She might be able to pull off a first place win in NH, but Nevada and SC aren’t likely to give any traction.
I would suggest out of the nine primaries on 3 March...other than Mass and Vermont, she’ll do no better than 3rd or 4th place in the remaining seven primaries (particularly California).
On the 4th of March, she’ll announce some drawdown, and concentrate only on one of the primaries on the 10th, then shutdown completely. I would suggest four primaries that she can take....max.
The Buffalo Wing of the “democrat party” is not that big. Beto the Fake Mexican will walk all over her. The fact that she is not a white guy is also going to hurt. The ‘RATS want Beto.
Beto is a CHILD. He might need an old lady to balance the ticket.
This name makes me ill.
Me thinkum ol’ Mangey Beaver smokum too many left-handed peace pipes.
That would not stop an arrogant, angry, entitled lezzy from thinking she’s worthy to be president.
I don’t think she expects to win. She’s doing this for other reasons.
Gray Beaver speak with heap big forked tongue.
