My family (including Fox News-watchers) sat together and talked about what they think of @realDonaldTrump’s attacks on our heritage.

Yeah, Native American. Native Latin American...

“The tribes have felt they have been exploited,” explained Lawrence Brody, a senior investigator with the Medical Genomics and Metabolic Genetics Branch at the National Institutes of Health. “The amount of genetic data that is available from Native Americans is sparse.”

To make up for the dearth of Native American DNA, Bustamante used samples from Mexico, Peru, and Colombia to stand in for Native American.

As I posted on another thread, the "obvious" explanation is that Warren's ancestry is Venezuelan Socialist.
