This should be a lesson to all of us: never believe your parents and grandparents when they tell stories about your heritage because, you know, if they got it wrong you'll be forever branded if you happen to be smart enough to get through law school and becomes a senator.
No, it is a lesson to not assert, on a document, things YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T PROVE. As an attorney, Warren is well aware of this.
He just can't seem to stop on the twitterstorms in which it appears his true colors are shown. What a great guy - he's the goofy, , nasty, thin-skinned, bully hero to millions.
"he lobbed two tweets Friday morning responding to Warren, who had lambasted him as a “thin-skinned, racist bully” in a speech the previous evening.“Pocahontas is at it again!” Trump wrote in one. “Goofy Elizabeth Warren, one of the least productive U.S. Senators, has a nasty mouth.”
“No, seriously — Delete your account,” Warren tweeted back. One of the senator’s supporters secured Pocahontas.com and redirected it to Warren’s campaign site."
So, trump has been using a teleprompter in the last few days (presumably to keep him from blowing off about judges for the moment)... it is clear that he is only READING with NO COMPREHENSION involved. All that talk about respect is just reading someone else's words.
Not only that, he's giving the dem side lots of ammunition to use against him... warren is now using "pocahontas' as part of the campaign. Hey, dude, keep handing the election to the other side. It is working really well so far, I hear your poll numbers are tanking!
Warren went after Trump constantly calling him a fraud and the list is long but Trump is the bad guy for defending himself against a senator that lied about being Native American.
Please!!!....you think people are going to vote for Hillary because Trump called Warren "pocahontas" which is funny and true about Warren?
Her brothers confirmed the same thing. Tell me why she would contribute recipes to an Indian cookbook 30 years ago if she did not think she was of Native American heritage. And what did she gain by giving them recipes?
Contributing to a cookbook isn't even in the same universe of situational gravity as representing ethnicity by checking or filling in a box re ethnicity on forms. She shouldn't have done the latter unless she had EVIDENCE to PROVE the claim.
Blond haired, blue-eyed Elizabeth Warren, who listed herself as “white” when she taught at the university of Texas in the eighties, suddenly launched herself into a lucrative and prestigious career in the Ivy League after she began claiming minority status. Her $300,000 a year Harvard salary, her former position in the Obama administration, her victory in the Massachusetts Democratic senate primary race–all of these things were obtained on the basis of a lie Warren told others about herself. For now, in spite of all evidence to the contrary, she refuses to admit the facts about her false claims to minority status.
You see? You kept on missing the point and defend the indefensible. You can be very proud of your heritage, there is nothing wrong with it. Matter of fact, that is a very admirable quality. You can even claim that you have American indian blood in you. (really nobody else's business)
But how can you defend a person who changed her status from "white" to "minority"? What is her purpose of doing it? The lack of a consistency is cringeworthy. How can you trust any of these politicians? Makes me believe, she only cares about one thing, herself.
30 years ago DNA tests were not so easy to do and certainly not something you did because you questioned your parents and grandparents
My great-great-aunt (who married into our family) was a past area president for the Colonial Dames. As they reached their late 80s/early 90s, she wanted her husband (my great grandfather's brother] to have our lineage papers done so that he could become a member of the Sons of the American Revolution. He had them done...not a big ordeal...and became a member.
That was in 1966.

That hate piece
Typical leftist projection

admits that the universities themselves say her heritage had no influence in her hiring[/b]. So she checks a box on some documents where the box exists but it has no factor and gains her nothing. You have no problem with her being proud of her heritage, then attack her even though your own lame article says she gained nothing from it.

The universities have said her heritage had no factor in her hiring. Ask President Obama if he hired her because of her heritage. Ask the voters of Massachusetts if they voted for her because of her heritage. What you are saying is completely made up. What did she gain?
You either can't read and can't retain what you have read...which I do NOT believe is the case..., OR you refuse to acknowledge points that prove you wrong....which I DO believe is the case. Her action, which you casually (and disrespectfully, IMO) refer to as 'checking a box on some documents where the box exists' is a misrepresentation.....a lie....an assertion that she CANNOT PROVE. Whether she gained anything or not is irrelevant....isn't any less a lie if she didn't gain anything.

To think that THAT'S who some people want as president. He's frickin' 70 years old and still acts like a child. But I guess that's the type of behavior you can expect from someone who's a spoiled trust fund brat.
why did she change her status from white to minority?
Because he is trying to deflect and distract. He knows he is wrong, but doesn't want to admit it to those who acknowledge the truth about Warren.
