Elizabeth Warren Ancestry Thread

Elizabeth Warren is white in the extreme, she is whiter than sour cream.

The date coincided with her first listing as a ‘‘minority’’ by the Association of American Law Schools. Warren reported herself as minority in the directory every year starting in 1986 - when AALS first included a list of minority law professors - to 1995, when her name dropped off the list.


Now that is some grade-A white privilege right there
 
I'm sure I'll be in trouble too then, I also SHOCK HORROR listed myself as Native American back when I THOUGHT I WAS NATIVE AMERICAN too!

Harvard listed Warren as Native American in its federal affirmative action forms from 1995 to 2004, records show.

1986 to 2004, that's a pretty good run of exploitation


Warren for President! She's just like you, except white

I got my DNA tests back, and it was pure white bread, from exactly where the family lore said it ought to be from. Ireland. England. Maybe on the continent as far as Alsace, which is where my name is most common in the world, and my eponymous ancestor was listed as a "German" immigrant, but with a French name in the 1840s, so Alsace.

I was the only one of my siblings who has done the test, and we were kind of hoping for some Native American in there, because who wouldn't like something exotic? We knew there were a bunch of ancestors kicking around Virginia, Kentucky, and the Carolinas back in the 18th century, so we thought there might have been a little bit of breeding with the natives, but no. British Isles all the way, with mostly Irish and what is probably one French guy.


(Oh, and as for Warren, I'm not voting for her because she's too old. However, if she gets the nomination, then it would be a choice between two people too old, and so Warren would certainly get my vote over The Donald.)

Your obsession with skin colour is very telling.

An aborigine mate of mine has fair skin and red hair. Anyone who accuses him of not being indigenous enough is in for a rude, and possibly painful, awakening.

Perhaps you could show what this "personal gain" was for Warren? I would have thought, given your history, that being even partly of native American descent would be a ticket to at least some level of persecution and/or ridicule, not promotion. After all, this WAS Texas in the 80's! The various boards who employed her seemed to take no account of this attribute. So they must have hired and promoted her purely based on her ability in the law! ;)

Whatever one may think about the way that Warren self-identified decades ago, you're bending over backwards to defend her. When a person is a small fraction X, yet self-identifies as X, that person is misleading you about their ancestry.

I'm approximately 1/16 English. My last name is decidedly English. But I would never write "English" on a form asking me to identify my background. That would be a lie. Not as severe a lie as say a person who creates fake personas to boost themselves (cough, John Baron) but still.

Add: The irrational responses I received when I posted something along these lines back in 2016 prompts me to add... I would be delighted for Warren to be POTUS. Warren as Dem nominee for POTUS scares the piss out of me though, because I think she's high risk in terms of electability.

As an aside, it is refreshing to see your thoughts not posted in hieroglyphics

She didn't base her claim on her fraction of DNA. She based it on the information she had regarding her ancestry from her family. Which is what everyone has pretty much always done, and still does.

There is nothing to criticize here. She was told she had Native American ancestry by her family. So when asked, she provided that information.

Native american tribes do not base their membership on the fraction of ancestry present, either, and they don't use DNA tests. It is more involved than that.

If your family tells you that you have Scottish ancestry, you accept it. And if someone asks you your ancestry, it's not wrong to say you are part Scottish.

She never claimed to be pure-blooded NA or anything.
 
It's pretty depressing how pure the left expects their representatives and members to be, considering the muck that the right tolerates from their own.
