Elizabeth Warren says Trump ‘will never take’ away her Native American heritage[W:413]

Are you aware that she is a sitting Senator, and that the issue came up because she ran for Congress? Or, are you going to CYA now and claim that running for Congress and running for President aren't comparable?

If you're a politician with Presidential aspirations and get called out for falsely belonging to a persecuted minority, then refuse calls to provide evidence, you are either a stupid idiot or you're lying. I believe either conclusion.

Seeing as we know why Warren has been under fire about the use of her heritage in the past. This attempt at deflection just silly.

I've said multiple times in this thread that if she runs for president, she's going to have to prove her ethnicity only because she made an issue out of it. Until that time, it's no one's business what's in her blood and what her favorite pizza topping is. I note that you have already decided what ethnicity she is not without any evidence either way. Why do conservatives need a birther conspiracy every election?

I mean, I'll read some more about this. I have never heard whatever you people are suggesting but not saying. If she did something scandalous with her ethnicity, I'm pretty sure I would have heard about it and that she would have been severely taken to task. As far as I know, she said she's part Cherokee because she thinks she is and the president and a bunch of stupid conservatives are calling her a liar without any proof and for no reason in the world other than to discredit a powerful Democrat. That's why the birther conspiracy is not a "silly deflection". It's the exact same thing that happened to Obama before the president and a bunch of stupid conservatives were exposed for being the lying assholes that they are.

Why did it come up? Maybe I don't know something about her story. Did she do something wrong or illegal with her purported ethnicity and never substantiate it? Has she been charged with some crime? If all she did was say that she is part Cherokee and somebody said, "Prove it," then that person should go **** him or herself. No one's identity should be threatened or questioned for no reason. That's called discrimination.

"Why does there have to be a conspiracy every election?" says the person who basically thinks our President is a Russian spy. Physician heal thyself.

Oborosen said:

Yes, the birther conspiracy is stupid. Yet Obama was able to show proof for his right to seek the presidency.

Warren has claimed being native American in the past and request for this proof has gone unanswered. So when I see her still making the same stupid claims and speeches that she does. Even with the power to put such a controversy to rest and she still chooses not to.

It only serves to spark more suspicion.

So now it's no longer about if they run for major office. I'm sorry, but it's hard for mere mortals to change direction as often as you do.

Why would she answer a bunch of conservative haters' bull**** request for proof that she is who she says she is? Obama wasn't going to do it either. He just acquiesced because he cared more about getting the country to focus on real and important issues than letting the president and his tin foil hat lemmings tear it apart with lies and make believe controversy. Ah, the good old days. You would be suspicious of Mahatma Gandhi and Mother Teresa if they were Democrats. Warren just doesn't care what you think and apparently that drives you all mad.

Oborosen said:

Great, straw manning... how am I not surprised?

Obama had to prove his citizenship, or else he would've had no chance of being the president.

Warren is most likely, just another politician who has lied and screwed other people over. Just to get to the position she now holds.

The grief she's receiving is well earned.

Obama was already the president, genius. When you're impugning someone's character with no evidence and for blatantly partisan reasons, your "most likely" assertion doesn't hold water.

Liawatha was the heir apparent to the nomination after the Hillary disaster but her position as such is fading fast:

Democratic Presidential Nominee - Democratic National Convention
https://www.5dimes.eu/BbGameSelection.asp

Sat 7/27 501 Bernie Sanders is Democratic Nominee 5 to 1
Sat 7/27 503 Kamala Harris is Democratic Nominee 6 to 1
Sat 7/27 505 Joe Biden is Democratic Nominee 6 1/4 to 1
Sat 7/27 507 Elizabeth Warren is Democratic Nominee 7 to 1

1) Bernie gained cred by taking on Clinton when no one else dared
2) Kamala Harris checks all the boxes black, women, liberal
3) Biden could bring back the Reagan Democrats that none of the others could
4) Warren once the darling of the far left has relinquished that position to Bernie

Harris is the lefts best chance
