    Link to what? I posted a screenshot of the actual report showing she's likely between 1/64th to 1/1024th Native American.

    You'd call that Native American when Latinos average 183X more Native American genes than the lower end of that range, African-Americans average 8X more and European-Americans average almost twice as much?

  2. I wonder what objections Warren would have to giving dna samples to send to an independent lab. Nevermind.

    Same situation with Dr. Fraud. Her supporters all crowed about how she took a polygraph test and "passed" whatever that means, and whatever the questions were. So would she then be willing to submit to a polygraph exam done by someone who was not hired by the dem party or her attorney?

  3. Factual information that she overplayed her hand with any comments she made regarding her heritage. I don't think she claimed to have been raised on a reservation.

    Meanwhile, you manage to overlook every single lie that Trump conjures up about himself. Is that a genetic thing? (About you, not him.)

    Based on the stats I just posted about the Native American ancestry of Latinos, African Americans and European Americans, ANY claim about being Native American by Warren was overplayed. But keep on defending her. You have no idea how infantile you sound :D

  5. How does it invalidate her claim? Just because some other groups have closer genetic links? What's the logic there? Are you even awake or are you sleep-typing?

    Seriously? :D Go back and redo second grade math. How does being 99.9% NOT Native American make her a Native American minority among Latinos, African Americans and European Americans who average 183X, 8X and 2X the Native American Heritage of the lower end of her range? Warren may have been one of Harvard's least Native American faculty members.

    Except that has nothing to do with anything I posted.

    I never claimed Warren used it to get a job but it's a fact Harvard touted her "minority" status. It's also a fact that the Association of American Law Schools listed Warren as a minority law professor for almost a decade.

    But keep putting irrelevant "fact checks." :D
