I recall the movie goodfellas, the mafia takes over a business, runs it into the ground by using it as a front to squirrel money to shill ventures, when its been drained of all life they let it burn.
Not a birther, and have never doubted the validity of Obama's birth certificate.
See my post #31 on this thread
As would any other person, Warren only has to justify herself to taxing authorities and law enforcement, so to speak. By running for Senate, she increased that pool from the aforementioned authorities to include the residents of the state of Massachusetts. Since becoming a U.S. Senator, Warren hasn't shied away from a progressively more prominent public profile. With that profile boost, increasing scrutiny naturally follows. Warren is certainly free to not provide any more information, as are those so inclined among the general public free to refer to her as Fauxcahontas or Pocahontas. Is every claim made in this world taken at face value? Of course not. People can claim anything they wish, but some level of scrutiny is a natural progression from that...even if the person doesn't have a heightened public profile....the scrutiny just increases if the person has a heightened public profile.
I addressed why I think she hasn't provided any more information in a previous post on this thread.
The people putting together the directory obviously didn't go on a time consuming hunt to uncover information Warren hadn't asserted just for the sake of a directory. If she can't conclusively prove it, the assertion never should have been made.
In your opinion.
Others disagree.
There it is folks, moral relativism. It is a representation that hasn't been proven (and many feel goes to her credibility). Whether she gained anything from it is irrelevant.
No one is forcing you to participate in this thread. If you don't think this is a worthy topic of discussion, don't participate.
The OP is obviously aware of Warren's interactions with the banking/financial services sector.
You'd have to ask the OP about that. I was responding to another poster on the thread (not the OP) who was already discussing it.
It goes to her credibility, and that is a meaningful issue.
^^^^^ And there it is folks, the 'Us vs. Them' mentality. There are a number of people who aren't Trump supporters and aren't Republicans, who also don't like Warren.
I was just speaking in general terms that this resembles the birth issue, this is what passes for supposed intelligent debate. I think you are giving the OP too much credit for knowing anything about banking, he started a thread on Sanders wife. Maybe you can explain that connection but sounds a bit irrational to me. Besides the entire thread is completely off topic, where is the analysis of Sanders wife.
I did however notice that in your very long response you neglected to point out anything of substance rather than the usual, maybe you have something to offer on the CFPB, the banking sector, Dodd-Frank, any reason you don't like her.
Best to stick to simple issues like "she's not an Indian", that way it doesn't stress people out.

The Sanders must have seen it too.
You might want to quit the propaganda while you're behind. I know Bernie's the biggest threat to right-wing talking points, but so far all smear campaigns against him have failed and he comes out looking better for it every time. In the future, you might try sticking to the issues.
Pocahontas smoked the Peace Pipe with Bernie so she doesn't mind if Bernie is stealing millions. If they run against each other in 2020, Pocahontas the Skreecher will bring it up.
