Elizabeth Warren Acknowledges Listing Herself As Native American To Harvard, Penn
Elizabeth Warren said late Wednesday that she had listed herself as Native American at Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania.
“At some point after I was hired by them, I … provided that information to the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard,” she said in a
statement to the Boston Globe, acknowledging the designation for the first time. “My Native American heritage is part of who I am, I’m proud of it and I have been open about it.”
Warren, a Democratic candidate for
U.S. Senate in Massachusetts, has been dogged by questions over her heritage
since the Boston Herald reported on her background on April 27. She initially told the
Herald that she didn’t know that Harvard Law had touted her as a minority faculty member until she read it in the paper. She has said that she listed herself as Native American in law school directories.
Elizabeth Warren apologizes for calling herself Native American
Sen. Elizabeth Warren said Tuesday that she was sorry that she identified herself as a Native American for almost two decades, reflecting her ongoing struggle to quiet a controversy that continues to haunt her as she prepares to formally announce a presidential bid.
Her comments more fully explain the regret she expressed last week to the chief of the Cherokee Nation, the first time she’s said she was sorry for claiming American Indian heritage.

$5 democrat Indian.
You would expect this nonsense from republicans. The reason that these ppl do this nonsense is because there's normally benefits for claiming certain minority status. Like that
transsexual that was going in on "Chucky" Schumer claiming to be Gypsy. The mind of a person that votes democrat can't possibly comprehend this, because well...... democrats don't do this is all they know. Like clinking them two pennies round in a glass jar. That's the description of what's in they brain.
This could very well be why Biden was referencing Native Americans when talking about our reparations. He'll just claim Native American (minority) status and get whatever reparations he said he was gonna give us. She ain't the only one to pull a stunt like that either. There needs to be charges for this type of nonsense. It ain't rocket science.
