#1 I don't think it should matters whether she is Native American or not. My question is why does it matter? If she uses her ethnicity to somehow gain an advantage over other people who do not share that ethnicity, isn't that racist?

#2 High cheek bones needs to go in the same book of derision as wide stance.

#3 So now she's clearly telling us that she is just an "undocumented Indian" and apparently, she's gone off the reservation.

Sorry!

#6 If she uses her ethnicity to somehow gain an advantage over other people ...

That's exactly what she's done. She was a (not very good) professor at Rutgers when she "discovered" her Indian ancestry. She applied to a vacancy in Harvard on the basis of her Native American ancestry. They hired her on that basis, even though she was one of the less qualified applicants. Then Harvard Law School touted her ancestry in their publicity for several years.

Not only is she fake, but Harvard Faculty Diversity program is also fake.

#7 #4 is a classic.

#8  her enduring and undocumented claims of Native American ancestry....

Funny how this wasn't an issue when she ran against Scott Brown in 2012. I'm more interested in her lack of a Mass. law license when she was doing all those cases while at Harvard.

#9 I have many relatives enrolled in federally recognized tribes. They in turn have many relatives who are also of native descent (i.e. they all share ancestors who are, beyond any reasonable doubt, native Americans, such as those identified in historical records, signers of treaties with the US government etc.) These "other" relatives lack the blood quantum required by most / all tribes in order to be recognized as tribal members per federal regulations. These "other" relatives can prove (by genealogical standards) they are "part native American", whereas Fauxcahontas obviously can't, or is deliberately concealing what she knows. The term "part native American" has been so abused for so long, it has become a code word for the type of lies/hypocrisy Sen. Warren has embraced. I advise my "part native American" relatives to simply state, "I am a direct descendant of Chief X, who signed the treaty of X with the USA in 18XX." This is a verifiable / falsifiable statement, with which only a fool could take uninformed exception.

#10 Oklahoma offers a number of benefits to resident Native Americans. Wonder if she filed for them.

#11 I am a direct descendant of the sheep grazing Lepreoconak tribe of County Cork. We've gone nearly extinct due to our aversion to work, argumentative disposition, and genetic attraction to spirits. Please remember us at mass.

#12 I grew up in New Hampshire, so I must be part Algonquin!

#13 Maybe her statement was truncated. Maybe her bloodlines are part Indian .......... fighter. Given how industrious her ancestors were in fighting Indians, she should be able to take advantage of hiring preferences for Indians.
