(CNN)Twenty-four hours after Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren shocked the political world with a five-minute video (and a mountain of documentation) aimed at putting to bed the controversy over her claims of Native American heritage, it's becoming increasingly clear the strategy amounts to a swing and a miss.
Warren's goal was to take the issue of her heritage off the table for nervous Democrats and to show that she was ready, willing and able to stand up to President Donald Trump if and when the time came that she was the party's nominee against him in 2020. The problem is that, when you strip away all of the glitz of her well-produced video, you are left with this: There's still no certainty that Warren is, in any meaningful way, Native American.
Yes, Stanford geneticist Carlos Bustamante tells Warren in the video that "the facts suggest that you absolutely have a Native American ancestor in your pedigree." But the estimates of just how much Native American blood Warren actually posses range from 1/64th to a whopping 1/1024th. Which, um, ain't a lot.

Lol! This was from CNN? This is rich. As someone with ancestors on the Cherokee rolls and part of a Muscogee tribe, I’ve found Warren offensive for years. This latest faux pas is just another proof of her not being Native... she doesn’t know anything about our culture.
The real native americans are not too happy with fauxcahontas. This backfired big time as I predicted.
If Trump was smart he would donate the $1 million to a Native American fund of his choosing - just to keep it in the news cycle.
I think President Trump should stop calling her Pocahontas and start calling her “Snow White”
She’s gonna Sioux!!
Cnn got its marching orders to distance from the Titanic.
As it happened that one in 1,000 genetic code was for high cheekbones.
I’m wondering what company she ised for her test. I was just reading about a set of identical triplets who used 23 and me, and each got different results. They should have gotten the same results since they all derived from one egg and one sperm.
Well you know Democrats are a lot like athlete's foot, jock itch, or almost any other kind of fungal infection. You can rub cream all over it for a few weeks and then for months it seems like its gone. But then you work in the sun all day and get sweaty and don't get to take a shower and it comes right back. Democrats are a fungal infection that our country picked up a long time ago and can't get rid of.
HA HA HA! Trump made a fool of pocahontas and I’m loving it!
Stick a fork in her—she is done. Her chances of being President are zero. Same with Hillary and Booker, Harris is teetering on the edge as well. Dems need some new faces, new ideas, etc...
Caricatures, cartoons and political ads touting Liawatha's racial victim hood are and will be created and running for years, all the way through the 2020 election cycle.
She, along with the entire DEMONcRAT Party are going to be the recipients of continuous, much deserved laughter, derision and ridicule over Liawatha's hilariously ludicrous, ongoing assertion that she is indeed a Native American Indian, in spite of reality and the truth to the contrary.
Liawatha's, no indian; she's whiter than Ivory Soap!
I heard that Elizabeth Warren was refused service in a Boston area restaurant.
Turns out, she id not have a reservation.
Badamdam!
Wasn't Lamont who asked that. It was the "stupid" White cop.
Regards,
She makes Hillary seem a warm, funny, groovy chick.
So, CNN is backing Willie Browns concubine?
OMG, thanks for clearing that up. That one goes wassay back.
All I’ve heard from the major news radio idiots is how awesome this was for Warren as they infer that Trump is a bad person.
They have never mentioned any actual facts. It’s pretty classic fake news.
Chris Cillizza, of Clinton Non-News (CNN), joins in the fun of ripping Hoaxahontas a new one for her latest attempted con job, while most of the Partisan Media Shills just idly parrot what Warren claims, and a few other PMS strongly defend her with the latest DNC talking point regurgitations. CNN is of course trying to lay down cover fire for Hitlery's third run in 2020, but it won't have much impact, because anyone who would vote for any of the grifters of the Clinton cabal would show up like the zombies they are and vote for Warren regardless.
“might” have?
HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Might have? Who writes this stuff?
