Don't need to post the latter, I don't need to use something that's in my bloodstream 10 generations ago (.0001% maybe) to get ahead, that's Liz's game


Moron.


Real mature, but then again you are probably a part of the Baby Killing Brigade, so why expect anything less?

Why bring it up in the first place? And don't tell me pride in your heritage when again, 10 generations ago means jack. She used it as a basis to try and further her career and name, that's my opinion, and you saying she didn't and yours, because you don't know all the people, companies, educational institutions that got her to where she is, just as I don't.

she used it at harvard law and used it on the campaign trail of multiple campaigns. if the DNA evidence is really there however slight and however long ago im not going to disparage her about it. and trump should send the $1,000,000 check. Trump Jr. should too.

But for example, I have native american ancestry that is only 3 generations old. My great grandma was 100% native north american and my DNA test shows 8% genetically. I am also part hispanic And I never used that evidence in any political setting, nor to get into any type of school. nothing. I never joined any groups. never got free college based on that. ever. from anywhere. Being part white, i never felt it the right thing to do. just being honest. I am also about 25% native from central american. and again, never used that to get into any college nor get free stuff. And I have always claimed to either be white of hispanic decent on every census type stuff because that was my closest match. Those things are usually awfully worded.

So me being much more like the person that warren claims to be feels kinda weird. I feel kinda dirty for her. She is making me kinda of uncomfortable. Like 6-10 generations ago? Did her great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandaddy rape my great great great great great great great great grandmother? Cuz those were not good times to be native american. Not sure what she gains here. by saying "send the $1,000,000 check?'
like i said, its a full rebuild.

No, my opinion is, if she used it to get ahead show me the **** evidence or shut the **** up.

If you're falling for calls straight from the birther playbook, you too can go ahead, sit down and shut the **** up.

Enlighten me if you will on the humor I'm missing? After all, I'm just a dumb conservative

This is a forum, people can express what they feel to be true, who the Redskin's homeland are you to tell someone what to post, last I checked, there's not a mod badge on your username.

The birther issue is completely unrelated, yet you keep doing that in this case for some reason. The birther thing was Trump being his bafoon self, whereas this is someone who is supposedly .000003% native american having the need to tell the world she is, acting as if she's so closely tied to it, to eb relevant.

President Trump told two senior Russian officials in a 2017 Oval Office meeting that he was unconcerned about Moscow’s interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election because the United States did the same in other countries

Does Melania believe Elizabeth Warren now?

Does Elizabeth Warren care what Melania thinks?

Does Melania think? Does anyone care?

You question my maturity in a sentence where you mention the "Baby Killing Brigade", I find that humorous.

This is a forum, people can express what they feel to be true, who the Redskin's homeland are you to tell someone what to post, last I checked, there's not a mod badge on your username.

You think the birther issue and questioning the legitimacy of Liz Warren's claims are unrelated?

I'm done, this is pointless.
