    Default Elizabeth Warren refuses DNA test to prove Native American heritage

    WASHINGTON – Sen. Elizabeth Warren batted down calls for her to take a DNA test to prove her Native American heritage in an interview that aired Sunday.

    https://nypost.com/2018/03/11/elizab...ican-heritage/

    She knows she is not an Indian, but a liar! Warren knows she has been telling a lie to qualify for extra benifits
    that go with minorities.

    The fact that she refuses a DNA test proves she has been lying.

    She got her Harvard gig claiming to be Indian, she lives in 5.4 mill house and now lectures us that the system is rigged for the rich!

    Not according to the New York Post.

    You'd like it to be old news though, obviously.

    Warren was featured in an article as a Native American by her college. This was spun by the neo-fascist mainstream media into a lie that she was constantly claiming to be native american to get all these non-existant "benefits" associated with being a minority in America (yeah, just fantastic to be a minority, poor poor discriminated against whitey).

    Nobody has any idea what she claimed to be on her Harvard application, or if it played any role in her selection.

    And stupid, besides. Warren must be threatening to the buttercups, or they wouldn't keep bleating about this.

    BTW, there are ppl in my classes with lighter skin and hair than mine, who have indigenous DNA. Can't go by looks.

    Her families from Oklahoma i.e. Indian territory. It would not be unlikely at all that she has Indian heritage.

    I think we should insist that Twittler take a DNA test to prove that he's homo sapiens.

    I wouldn't respect my self if I let some obscure, rightwing losers goad me into a DNA test. I would tell them to fuck off.

    I have nothing to prove to rightwing losers, and Elizabeth Warren doesn't either.

    I do not see why someone would lie about native American ancestry. What is the point of lying about it? I think the people that assume she is lying, are psychologically projecting....because from what I can tell, lying, dishonesty, slander, and deception is all the rage in the Trump-loving rightwing!

    I was told that I am Scotch and German. I have never taken a DNA test. Do I have to do that now? My family always told me I was . Should I assume they lied and demand a test?

    Ha!

    Exactly.

    This is a game the rightwing has played for a long time.

    Remember how they kept demanding proof that Obama was a U.S. Citizen? Demanding proof that John Kerry did not "lie" to get medals?

    Goading people is a game children play....and, apparently, rightwing adult losers play too.

    Warren’s central offense dates back to the mid 1980s, when she first formally notified law school administrators that her family tree includes Native Americans. Warren said she grew up with family stories about both grandparents on her mother’s side having some Cherokee or Delaware blood.

    That genealogical claim has zero documentary evidence to back it up, according to a PolitiFact review of news and newsletter databases back to 1986.

    Her detractors say she deployed a faux Native American connection to improve her chances of landing teaching jobs at two of the country’s top law schools. However, there is no proof Warren gained any special advantage in her career.

    Before this controversy arose in 2012, there is no account that Warren spoke publicly of having Native American roots, although she called herself Cherokee in a local Oklahoma cookbook in 1984.

    There is no dispute that Warren formally notified officials at the University of Pennsylvania and then Harvard claiming Native American heritage after she was hired.

    Warren’s campaign team could never uncover any documents that confirmed Native American heritage in her family.

    The New England Historic Genealogical Society also could not find any.

    'We have no proof that Elizabeth Warren's great-great-great-grandmother O.C. Sarah Smith either is or is not of Cherokee descent,' society spokesman Tom Champoux told the Herald for a May 2012 story. (When we called the society, a spokesman said we should look at its statements from 2012.)

    Warren’s ultimate explanation was she was drawing on family stories.
