one thing is certain: this whole episode has shown once again that weak men fear strong women.

Personally, I think she could have just avoided the controversy.. she should have followed the advice of this meme.. just look at the idiots like vette, notaj, botanydummy et al here that had so much to say..
Just like Obama and the idiot birthers..![]()
I do know that there were a lot of runaway-slave ads in Southern newspapers saying things like, "Blonde hair, blue eyes, will try to pass for white." Probably a lot of them did pass after they were freed, and are ancestors to many of us "whites."
Us? LOL I'm not white buddy.
oh oh you mean the (D)emocrat definition of "white" which just means not being black and having some social/economic prosperity?
Situational minority is only a minority if beaten/shot by a whiter cop right??
Never when beating out black kids in academia, that's a white privilege![]()
It's okay to be white.
I wouldn't take Ancestry.com DNA without a grain of salt. There are various degrees of checking DNA and most don't go back or as detailed as you wish. What you get for $99 is not what they show their guest on TV. As far as Warren everything you said about her being "Indian" is false and the DNA actually proved it. Heck using such a low percentage that in fact can't be proven for Native Americans (most tribes say you have to be 1/4 or some 1/16 to claim membership.) If we go by her then the fact my father was born and raised on the Yuma Tribe on the Colorado then I could claim I'm more Native American then she. Trump was right about her. She is a bigot and a liar and a thief. She stole an education from a deserving Native American student and has used her "claim" to help her political career. Don't blame Trump or anyone else for her being a liar and a fool.
You don't own the board. You move on or just not post to me if you don't like my posts.

Back to the topic at hand. This was a grave mistake on Warren's part. I don't understand why she would release results that show her to be just another typical white person (1/32 at best), and I don't understand why she released them so close to mid-term elections. Trump still needs to pay that million because he didn't specify how much ancestry... but spending a mere million to neutralize a worthy future opponent is quite a bargain. He goaded her into doing something stupid; I am surprised she'd be so short sighted.

And so it starts.
Another woman with high political aspirations being demonized. And on the other side a shrug and a yawn... status quo.
I'm seeing a pattern.
The demonizing of her continuing--by someone with a very, very big glass house.
It's not Trump I'm talking about. That loudmouthed gasbag is a given in his inappropriate, unprofessional and over the top behavior. The American public however is showing no signs it has learned the lesson of sexist attitudes and how they effect perception and behavior.
Two questions were answered.
Was the story that she was told by her family, true ?
Did she have a Native American ancestor ?
She took the test.
In 2018, Elizabeth Warren submitted a DNA sample for analysis by Dr. Carlos Bustamante, a Professor of Biomedical Data Science, Genetics, and Biology at Stanford University who is “an internationally recognized leader in the application of data science and genomics technology” and was selected as a 2010 MacArthur “Genius” Fellow.
