    And then there is this...

    During her academic career as a law professor, she had her ethnicity changed from white to Native American at the University of Pennsylvania Law School, where she taught from 1987 to 1995, and at Harvard University Law School, where she was a tenured faculty member starting in 1995. (She was a visiting professor at Harvard during the 1992-1993 academic year.)

    In an interview with the Globe published last month, Warren explained that she identified herself as Native American in the late 1980s and early 1990s as many of the matriarchs of her family were dying and she began to feel that her family stories and history were becoming lost.

    Ivy League universities, like the ones where Warren taught, were under great pressure to show they had diverse staffs.

  2. Fauxco went over the top with this identity politics thing and it came back to bite her.

    Funny thing is, she is from a relatively poor/or struggling family in Oklahoma which is an honest enough status and gives you plenty of cred as an American. And it helps to balance out that eastern law school professor image that she has. But no, not enough, and being an oklahoman sounds a little trumpy. Her real story was honorable enough but you go where your political ambitions require you to go.

    One of the things that bugs me about Fauxco is that she is spazzy as hell. You ask her a question and she immediately starts getting hyper and twitchy as hell and shaking her head back and forth and talking faster and faster. Jeez Louise, give it a rest. Must be that savage indian blood in you.
     
  3. Correction: Due to a math error, a story about Elizabeth Warren misstated the ancestry percentage of a potential 10th generation relative. It should be 1/1,024.

    LMAO!!!
