Isnt this everywhere? Asians, indians, hispanic - its too generalized so you add detail as to cultural experiences
She was purported and marketed as a minority… So you are saying the eyewitnesses who were part of the situation and benefited from it should be considered credible? That would be comparable to Matthew providing you a stock tip, you trading on it and paying Matthew part of the profit, and then telling the SEC it’s ok because i was going to trade it anyway and Matthew’s comment had no impact on my decision.
She’s a senator so she does deserve respect for getting such a position. Buuttt how much of her success rides back to her claim as a minority? It’s like phenom football players who take steroids - they are top top to begin with but who is to say that without such enhancement they would have made it to the pros? There is an easy solution to the former (perhaps the latter too) in which you abolish the use of affirmative action.
This obviously isn’t an alt right situation either - your attempt to attach it to such a group discounts your post altogether. I’m pro abortion, pro-gay, pro-environment, anti-wars and yet I think it’s blatantly obvious EW tried to exploit the system through fraud.

What Warren did is despicable—not just because of how short-sighted and selfish it was, but because it betrays the agreement between tribal governments and the United States government that our people are their own people. In publishing this video, and believing it to be the right thing to do, she simply played the political cards exactly as she and every other white politician have been taught: wherever useful, wherever it is most expedient and pragmatic, borrow from the Native people and communities and governments. Borrow their children, borrow their land, borrow their culture, and, if you think you need to, borrow with no intent of returning what you took.
i think it goes even beyond this. it is about EW officially claiming to be a part of a group with no concrete information. her stated reason for taking the dna test is to prove that she is native american but why would you officially make this claim if it needed to be proven, as in, you didn’t talk to the native american guy in the family. she is saying she acts based on facts but all this shows is that she has acted without facts in the past. add the fact that it was possibly to her benefit and you’ve got yourself another slimy politician.
Maybe not the smartest, but he definitely understands how to connect with the ‘‘deplorables’’. Pretty easy to do given how pompous the libs have become!
You should consider joining ISIS, no corporations to brainwash you, and only one party line.
“This obviously isn’t an alt right situation either - your attempt to attach it to such a group discounts your post altogether. I’m pro abortion, pro-gay, pro-environment, anti-wars and yet I think it’s blatantly obvious EW tried to exploit the system through fraud.” Bro, i don’t understand, I was only repeating the what the article said…The native american thing only started years after she was already at Penn and well regarded there. At harvard, 31/32 people on HU’s hiring commit said ethnicity was no issue, she was hired for her quality. 1 person said they don’t recall, but that she was certainly qualified. So I think it is reasonable to conclude she gained no material advantage. Of course that doesn’t make it right, and what makes it an alt-right issue is that the people calling her out the loudest, conveniently look the other way at the much bigger lies and defects of Trump, Kushner, Ross, and company.
Again, from your own article:
“The Boston Globe followed the Herald with a report that the Association of American Law Schools listed Warren as a minority law teacher each year from 1986 to 1994. In that time, Warren went from being a law professor at the University of Texas, to the University of Pennsylvania, and finally in 1995 to Harvard University.”
She clearly disclosed and was listed in the public American Law School database as a minority law teacher BEFORE and throughout her time at Penn and Harvard. This was the same time those schools (again, from the article) were pushing to increase minority representation. She obviously therefore had disclosed publicly that she was a minority. You and these articles then keep trying to fall back on the “well, she never DIRECTLY notified Harvard until she was already there” defense. Which is about as flimsy as it gets given that Harvard and Penn would have already done their research during the hiring process.
Sure, you’re right, Harvard and their hiring panel said her race wasn’t a factor. The same way in response to the admissions discrimination lawsuit they’ve nonsensically claimed, “Race can only help, never harm” an applicant’s chances in a competitive zero sum process and that "“race alone is never the reason a student is granted admission, race is never the reason a student is denied.” Yet admission statistics clearly show if you’re asian applying to Harvard you’re getting shafted. Well how’s that possible? “because Harvard consistently gives them low scores on the personal rating, which, according to a document revealed by the group Monday, is only loosely defined in Harvard policies.”
So in conclusion, if Harvard and Penn say race wasn’t a factor, I’m sure it wasn’t a factor. Her personal rating was probably just really high… https://boston.cbslocal.com/2018/10/15/harvard-university-trial-asian-american-admissions-lawsuit-discrimination/
”Elizabeth Warren Was Celebrated as ‘First Woman of Color’ at Harvard Law”
LOL!!!
This article nailed it.
That’s really embarrassing. How can she face Cory Booker or Kamala Harris someone like that in the Democratic Primary if they bring it up in some debate.
I mean, I think we need to all take a step back from this and just appreciate what’s important. You know how for years people have wondered what would happen if you just identified as X and showed up as an obviously white person? Now we know.
guess who’s white?! its all a lie, they are all lying mixed people!
Not sure if it’s been said but the only thing that would make this win sweeter (aka too much winning) would be if Trump took a DNA test and it showed he was more Native American than “Pocahontas”. I’d be dead.
Trump for Chief 2020
…and Harvard was in on the scam, of course.
