Elizabeth Warren - 1/32nd Cherokee? How?

We get it, you don't think falsely claiming an ethnicity to advance one's career is bad. Cool.

Did you think anyone was going to mistake that straw for what Cleon actually was saying? You didn't even bother tying it together into a man, just left it in a pile. Have some pride in your fallacies man!

The article notes that this is the preparation part of the recipe for cold omelets with crab meat recipe from Pow Wow Chow contributed by Warren ...



This is how it appeared in the NY Times:



As you can see, that's a completely different preparation. Lightly brown, not lightly browned.
:rolleyes:

Warren can't even seem to fake a fake Indian recipe without resorting to fakery.

"Elizabeth Warren contributed five recipes in a Native-American cookbook entitled “Pow Wow Chow” which was released in 1984. In this book she referred to herself as a Cherokee. (And I thought she wasn’t using her “heritage for personal gain.) My first thought when I read this story was that I didn’t know crab was considered a staple of Native-American cooking, because two of the recipes were for crab. It appeared to me as if her recipes were as authentically Native-American as she claims to be. It turns out that the least of Elizabeth Warren’s concerns about these recipes is whether or not they are considered authentic Native-American cuisine because they may not even be authentic Elizabeth Warren recipes. It is now being reported that Elizabeth Warren may have in fact plagiarized at least three of these recipes."

Seriously. I'm almost offended; at least put some effort into it, man!

I'm sure the ones on the coasts ate buttloads of crabs. Of course, they were the first ones kicked off their land...
 
How did the cookbook get brought into this story? The Warren campaign offered it up as part of its proof. If she didn't want it examined she shouldn't have brought it up.
 
Maddow does her homework.
MSNBC Maddow Show
MADDOW: Not quite a year ago, the voters of the Cherokee Nation
based on the U.S. state of Oklahoma, they elected a new principal chief,
the highest elected office in the Cherokee government. The new chief, Bill
John Baker, defeated a three-term incumbent by just 11 votes out of more
than 15,000 votes cast. It was a really, really close race.
But Bill John Baker won, and now as principal chief Bill John Baker,
he is running the Cherokee nation.
At the time of the election that made him principal chief, one of the
issues that got raised was that Mr. Baker was of mixed ancestry. Chief
Baker is, in fact, 1/32 Cherokee. That makes him Cherokee, the same as
other Cherokee leaders who also have a mixed ancestry.
And as you can see here that Bill John Baker, that 1/32 Cherokee,
Bill John Baker, is now the dually elected, dually serving principal chief
of Cherokee Nation.

Well, the point is she used her Native American ancestry as a sop to Harvard students' diversity concerns. Given that she has 97% European (i.e. non-diverse) ancestry it seems like a pretty cynical move to me, not to mention insulting to actual Cherokees. But maybe she can explain for herself, and I'd be more than happy to hear her out.

Wait, European is non diverse now?


Never mind, already addressed.

Why do people laugh at right wing loons?
And now this week, Senator Brown is all in, how dare Elizabeth Warren
call herself Native American. What a scam.
It turns out Elizabeth Warren is Native American. She`s from
Oklahoma. She is 1/32 Cherokee. She appears to be exactly as Cherokee as
the principal chief of the Cherokee Nation, Bill John Baker. Elizabeth
Warren is exactly as Cherokee as the guy who heads the Cherokee nation.

Well, that could explain everything...

She's seafaring Cherokee, and all their records were lost at sea.
