A point about Elizabeth Warren's Native American Ancestry

That too.
Not only is Trump in her head but she used her 1/1,024 N.A. as a minority hire status.
She's still Pocahontas.

False.

"In the most exhaustive review undertaken of Elizabeth Warren’s professional history, the Globe found clear evidence, in documents and interviews, that her claim to Native American ethnicity was never considered by the Harvard Law faculty, which voted resoundingly to hire her, or by those who hired her to four prior positions at other law schools. At every step of her remarkable rise in the legal profession, the people responsible for hiring her saw her as a white woman."

I am always amazed at how rapidly rightwingers can leap from one lie to the next, all in an effort to keep from admitting they had been wrong in the first place.

What exactly are Rightwingers teaching their children? To lie? To avoid acknowledging mistakes? To dodge accountability? The mind shudders to think of the possibilities.

Pretty funny how desperate the National Review is to spin this, don't you think? I mean, there was never any evidence Warren exploited her claimed Native American ancestry in her academic or career endeavors. Quite the contrary -- there's been plenty of investigation and it shows that her ancestry was never considered in those matters... it was simply something she listed in a directory. But this is Trump's latest birther endeavor, and so the right-wing media feels committed to salvaging it.

They must defend trump and the charitable donation he will never make.

How hard would it be for a normal person to just laugh, and say "You know what Elizabeth, I would be happy to donate to the charity of your choice."

That is what a person of character and class would do.

I can scarcely believe that a grown man would turn this into some kind contest for domination, not to mention welch on a bet. I mean, I know teenagers that are not as petulant and childish as Trump

Dontcha love how he lied that he even made the bet even though there's video evidence of it? :D

The indigenous peoples of the North American continent lost their heritage, land and culture to american exceptionalism. And they are still in the same shape they were always in. By continued design, they're being excluded from voting. Guess by whom, by design and effort. Warren is no threat to them, america is.

Fuck your stupidity and intellectual dishonesty.

You’re re a fucking uninformed douche. You don’t know shit. Wave your hands and point your fingers to distract. Warrens garnering support for her fake claim is dishonoring and fraudulent. No one stated she was a threat. That’s just more hyperbole you invent to distract.
 
He doesn't owe her the money.
The challenge was made for the future. IF and WHEN she becomes the nominee. And, IF and WHEN they are involved in the debate. THEN he WOULD make the challenge and the offer.

Dems lose again for failing to include context.

The only issue here is pocahontis lied on an application about her heritage trying to get something free, or move to the front of the line.

then she goes on some mission to prove there is a drop of native American blood in her therefor she was being truthful.

She got caught, she loses on this one, Trump is making fun of her because she is goofy, a goofy pretentious liberal nut-bag.
That has apexed her political ambitions in the looney bin of Massachusetts politics. which amounts to nothing, they voted Ted Kennedy in for 40 years and he was a drunk that drove someones beautiful daughter into the ocean and left her there on the bottom while he went home and slept his drunkenness off, so they are hardly the good judges of character.

The evidence proves you're lying. She got nothing free, in fact, she didn't need anything free because it was her intelligence and work history that got her hired. As opposed to skeezy grifters like Jared Kushner.

"... Jared Kushner's wealthy father pulled every string he could reach to get his son into Harvard: He called two senators to whom he had donated to have them call the Ivy League school on his son's behalf, and he directly pledged a gift of $2.5 million.

On his own merits, Jared would not have gotten in, since he lacked both top grades and SAT scores: "Margot Krebs, who was director of Frisch's college preparatory program at the time, said, 'Jared was certainly not anywhere near the top of his class,'" Golden recounts...

Looks like she earned that status on her own, doesn't it? I'm sure you have eclipsed her wealth and entitlements, haven'y you?

"Warren lived in Norman until she was 11 years old, when the family moved to Oklahoma City. When she was 12, her father, a salesman at Montgomery Ward, had a heart attack, which led to many medical bills as well as a pay cut because he could not do his previous work. Eventually, their car was repossessed because they failed to make loan payments. To help the family finances, her mother found work in the catalog order department at Sears. When she was 13, Warren started waiting tables at her aunt's restaurant.

Warren became a star member of the debate team at Northwest Classen High School and won the state high school debating championship. She also won a debate scholarship to George Washington University at the age of 16. She initially aspired to be a teacher, but left GWU after two years to marry Jim Warren, whom she met in high school.

Warren and her husband moved to Houston, where he was employed by IBM, which was a subcontractor to NASA. She enrolled in the University of Houston and graduated in 1970 with a Bachelor of Science degree in speech pathology and audiology. For a year, she taught children with disabilities who were enrolled in a public school. Her qualifications were based on an "emergency certificate", because she had not taken the education courses that were required for a regular teaching certificate.

The Warrens moved to New Jersey when Jim received a job transfer. She soon became pregnant and decided to remain at home to care for their child. After their daughter turned two, Warren enrolled at the Rutgers Law School in Newark. She worked as a summer associate at Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft. Shortly before graduating in 1976, Warren became pregnant with their second child. After she received her J.D. and passed the bar examination, she decided to perform legal services from home; she wrote wills and did real estate closings."

Sure, many wealthy entitled white people worked hard in school and on their jobs for their status. I wish I had eclipsed her wealth and entitlement, but alas, I have not. I was at the University of Houston at the same time but did not know her.

None of this alters the fact that she is a wealthy entitled white woman (even if her family's car was repossessed and she worked as a waitress).
 
That's what she attempted by lying. Now it's politically expedient for her to do it because of her obsession with race.
 
There is “strong evidence” that Ms. Warren has Native American pedigree “6-10 generations ago,” according to a document she released Monday from Dr. Carlos Bustamante, a renowned geneticist. The error rate is less than one-in-a-thousand, he said.
(10 generations would make it .1024%)

The average European American is .18% N.A., more than SHE showed for HERself. LOL!
(NYT)

Plus Bustamante admitted he didn't even use N.A. samples for the test. He tested samples for Mexico, Peru & Columbia! What's she going to do now? Run as a Latina?

Then she needs to STFU about her "heritage". Why does she even bring it up? Because Trump is in her head.
Her little DNA stunt has obviously backfired on her.

You misuse the meaning of the word 'entitled'.

Now, if you wish to apply that to Trump, you would be correct. But not Warren.

I think you have it backwards. She is in trump's pea brain big time. She, Hillary and any other liberal or Democratic woman. He's unable to function without having liberal women to bash.

Regardless, E.W. should just STFU about her "heritage". It's not helping her. And that's just solid advice for her.;)

I am not misusing it----you just don't like it applied to her. You think it should be reserved for those you dislike. But it very much applies to her and any other wealthy members of Congress, all recent presidents, and many others in governmental and private employment.
