    Most of my liberal friends are still claiming the DNA test proves she IS a native american. lol.

    It does prove she had a little Native American ancestry.

    I'm not a Democrat or a Republican and I don't root for either side as I don't think our current political systems serves the people.

    I have no idea what SFGbob meant but it's impossible to know if it's helped her unless we go back and talk with every admissions board/human resources department that has ever considered her credentials for admittance/a job offer.

    I know this... it definitely didn't hurt her.

    In my opinion, hypocrisy is a particularly damning character flaw and I can't help but think that if it had come out that Trump or Romney or some other Republican was in the same situation as Warren that the mob would be calling for their head and attempting the ruin their life/career. However, since Warren is on their "team" she is somehow skating by without the same repercussions that a Republican would be facing.

    Intent matters and I have no idea if Warren was just misinformed or consciously misleading people by claiming she was a Native American. If she was knowingly misrepresenting herself than she should face the same mob that Trump would face for the same infraction.

    I get that the Tug doesn't do nuance but at least I tried...
    You mean Trump's mythology about being a self-made man?

    I don't know if you're joking here but she had less Native American DNA than that average "white" person in America.

    Trump is a liar and a buffoon but claiming to be rich is not the same as claiming to be a protected racial class...

    Liberals have been defending her for years by claiming that she never tried to use her phony Indian heritage to advance herself academically or professionally. That claim was always a lie and now we have indisputable evidence that it was always a lie. She is toast.

    Hondo, unlike you there is no dick in my mouth what I'm saying is perfectly clear. Funny how the Kunt who is always talking about other people's poor reading comprehension is unable to process clear and precise language.

    So you openly admit to lying. But you are too much of a pussy to confirm it.

    It's not impossible to know. We know that Harvard listed her as one of their "persons of color" law professors. It definitely helped. Hell this was all part of the same package as to why Obama was supporting a racist like Derek Bell. The pressure to increase "minority" professors, through-out the academy and especially at the Ivy League schools has been intense. Warren was a two-fer, she was both a woman and a Native American. Harvard bragged about that "fact" and touted her presence in order to promote their diverse faculty.

    Her defenders have always claimed that she never benefited from her false claim of minority status. That claim always has been bullshit.
