In 2012, Warren’s explanation was that her great-great-great grandmother, O.C. Sarah Smith Crawford, was Cherokee. However, Leahy noted that Smith Crawford “had no Cherokee heritage, was listed as ‘white’ in the Census of 1860, and was most likely half Swedish and half English, Scottish, or German, or some combination thereof.”

However, if Smith Crawford somehow thought she was Cherokee, she was definitely one of the self-hating variety.

“But the most stunning discovery about the life of O.C. Sarah Smith Crawford is that her husband, Ms. Warren’s great-great-great grandfather, was apparently a member of the Tennessee Militia who rounded up Cherokees from their family homes in the Southeastern United States and herded them into government-built stockades in what was then called Ross’s Landing (now Chattanooga), Tennessee – the point of origin for the horrific Trail of Tears, which began in January, 1837,” Leahy wrote.

So the person she claimed had Native American ancestry identified as white and was married to a man responsible for rounding up Cherokees during the Trail of Tears?

Yea that is still a sore point. The trail of tears cost many lives. Supposedly i had some relatives lost in the trail of tears. I need to do a heritage thing and search back
and find out the records.

Well, my 23 and me said I was 0.3% American Indian and 0.2% African. I am outraged as well.

Except for the tiny fact that EW listed herself as a minority with nothing more than ' because mama said so', kind a stupid for a Law Professor, from Harvard no less, to do, don't ya think ??
 
Do you suppose that in hindsight Warren now regrets releasing her DNA test to the media?

Not really if you understand anything about humans.

Look at all the Professors who believe in God simply because mommy told them. All believing in the God mommy told them was the correct one to believe in.
Same thing. (Not that I think you'll understand)

I think Warren was extremely naive if she thought releasing her DNA results would satisfy anyone on the right who claimed for many years that "ALL" she needed to do was get a DNA test to end the speculation and accusations once and for all.

Probably not. People like Warren are psychologically immune to how ridiculous other people see them, when pulling racially offensive stunts.

Case in point: Hillary Clinton telling black people that she carries hot sauce in her purse at all times. You just never know when you're going to have a hot sauce emergency.

Yes, and maybe not so good at fractions.

It's you that doesn't understand, you're comparing apples to oranges. A belief in God requires faith, claiming minority status requires facts.

I'd forgotten about the hot sauce.

I think that what Warren has succeeded in doing is refocusing attention on this claim and that this was a blunder that guarantees that "Lieawatha" and "Fauxchahontas" will continue to follow her.

I think her regret goes further back to listing herself and leading employers to believe she's American Indian.

Listen, I am not debating you. Take what I told you and learn from it or remain ignorant to how and why humans act and believe as hey do.

Remember when White "progressives" used to refer to Bill Clinton as "the first Black president"? Remember when John Kerry said he "wouldn't be upset" if he could be the second?

:lamo:lamo:lamo

You can't make this **** up!!

I think Trump took down another politician with a simple characterization and repetition.

Why no politician is able to adequately respond to these juvenile antics is the real problem.

:lol: I think you're right.

My own personal favorite play on words for this story is #mesioux. Google has it blocked if you do a search, even though it's all over social media right now.

There's no doubt I've learned from it.

If her DNA results HAD shown that she really was reasonable percentage of Amerindian, then even other Amerindians would be satisfied. :roll:

They merely showed that somewhere way way back before her alleged mother (or was it her several times great-grandmother, her story keeps changing) was Amerindian. Most Americans could claim the same based on these silly and IMO inaccurate (read phony) DNA ancestry results.

NO, she did not prove she was Amerindian, much less a descendent of any Native American tribal group. It simply makes her look silly and deceptive, or at least gullably delusional.

Meanwhile, why do so many White people hate themselves? Have they come to believe they are inherently evil, and personally responsible for any "crimes" attributed to Whites in the past by the SJW Identity Politics narrative?

I find that highly amusing.

Plus, what was it about Bill Clinton that supposedly made him black? That's a can of worms.
 
Elizabeth Warren just released a photo that she claims is incontrovertible proof that she was at The Battle of Little Bighorn:
