Earlier this week, Elizabeth earned plaudits from her most devoted fans -- denizens of elite coastal newsrooms -- for apologizing to Native Americans at a forum she attended. The Massachusetts Senator acknowledged that she'd made "mistakes" and caused "harm," but failed to detail what, specifically, those harmful mistakes actually were. Her campaign also memory-holed her disastrous DNA stunt video, which had been hailed by some in the press as brilliant when it was first released, only to slide into the "problematic" column when (once again) genuine Native Americans strongly objected to the nature of her supposed "proof." Out: This dodgy evidence shows I was (1/64th to 1/1,024th) right all along! In: I'm really sorry for unspecified errors. And so, for the umpteenth time, Warren is trying to put this nagging controversy behind her. She can't do so, however, until she persuasively and compellingly addresses two fundamental questions.

It will be answered when some tribe steps forward with “proof” that by golly, she’s actually part Red Man after all.
Should she win the rewards of Federal largesse will be enormous.
The answer is, she is a fraud.
2) Why did she stop listing herself as a Native American just after securing tenure at Harvard Law School? Warren claims that she did not gain any financial or professional benefit from formally classifying herself as a racial minority in the 1980's and 1990's, but powerful circumstantial evidence and common sense suggest that's not true.
Doesn’t have to. The MSM will cover from here. Alt-right’s arrows will be right on target.
I think the question I would like to ask....from the past thirty years at Harvard....how many students listed themselves as American Indian? And today....ten years, twenty years, or thirty years later.....how have their careers been affected by the fake heritage business?
And what reparations should Lie-a-watha pay to right this egregious act is something that no one asks about...
It’s interesting how with all of this “white privilege” that’s supposed to be so prevalent in the country that so many white people try so very hard to prove that they are not white.
Ah, remember when the press stomped their feet and called Trump a racist for calling her “Pocahontas”? I guess they forgot their talking point that you can’t be racist against white people.
Warren’s tribe is Caucasian
But.. She’s an Indian Too!

True enough!
Been a FRaud all her life!
LIEawatha is a noxious, venomous LIEberal harridan!
Can you imagine having to listen to her screechings 24/7/365?
The woman is bat-shit crazy and the more she screeches, the more LIEberals love her and the more I intensely dislike her!
I don’t like the hypocrite Liz Warren one bit on any thing, but I’ll give her SOME slack on the Indian thing.
In my Super Italian family Grandma always told the story of how one of her Grandmas was a concubine to a Chinese prince or something along those lines, and we have Chinese (or Japanese?) royalty in our blood.
I loved to tell that tale, never knowing if it was true or not. But I never used it to get into college or anything else.
If Liz’s family had the same kind of tale I wouldn’t blame her for telling it, but, in true liberal fashion she used that to get special treatment and ended up with egg on her face.
As a rich and powerful person she should have known better.
PS- A sister of mine had her DNA analyzed. Ancestry says we’re French, not Italian and not even 1/1024th Oriental.
What the hell am I supposed to do with that? :/ :)
I suppose if she starts chewing tobacco she could legitimately claim she has some Red Man in her...
Just to be clear, she claimed native american ancestry on her application to be a Harvard Law School professor, they hired her on that basis, and then Harvard bragged about it in the Fordham Law Review.
This lie was a whopper (with cheese)!
I object to the fact that the country of origin of one’s ancestors can be used to obtain special privileges.
I object to the fact that certain countries of origin lead to condemnation and accusations of racism.
Guilt and virtue are properties of the individual, not of artificially constructed “groups.”
Because competition for a faculty position is a zero-sum proposition, when you filled that position based on false qualifications, you displaced a truly qualified minority. Are you willing to admit today that your actions adversely affected a minority person?
