Her legal name is Love. My legal name is the name my husband had when he married me. Now it's my legal name, too. It's what's on my social security card, drivers license, tax returns, house deed, and all that. Pretty cool how it works. I'm sadly still not Swedish though. You don't get to take your husband's ethnicity, too.
Of course, none of that has to do with Elizabeth Warren's ancestry.
Okie dokie, I'll repeat it too. The fact is that it is a decision which is based on her understanding/attachment to her ethnic identity. Likewise, Warren determining she was NA because of family lore is a sign of her attachment/understanding of her ethnic identity. Neither of those decisions call their integrity into question. This is hard for you to understand.
