Heraclitusstudent says

She never claimed she was native American.

That's the point of the question on the application.

She also claims an ancestor in the ad she produced and released this week. Yes you are correct, this is no "weddings and yoga" lie.

Heraclitusstudent says

Trump cultists, whose leader does 10 times worse on a regular basis.

Lol you too? Ok, please show us how trump has lied worse than Elizabeth Pocahontas Warren.

Heraclitusstudent says

She never claimed she was native American.

wtf? So changing her race from "white" to "native american" at Harvard is not "claiming" to be Native American?

What will Democrats think of next? Women can have dicks? Men can have periods?

Oh wait..........

But maybe Heraclitus is right, Warren isn't trying to claim to be native, she only published a book called "Pow Wow Chow: A Collection of Recipes from Families of the Five Civilized Tribes : Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek and Seminole" and claimed to be native on Harvard promotional materials.

That's all.

NO ONE can be a professor at HARVARD LAW SCHOOL with a JD from RUTGERS!

You are making an assertion. You were not at the job interview. You have no idea why she was hired and who else applied. You cannot know these things.

Of course because I'm don't work for the dean's office, however, I do know those, who're in a position to hire assistant professors at Harvard Law and they've been pretty blunt ... Law Review (or other significant publication history) from Top Tier school, Federal Clerkships, etc, are what gets a person past the first round.

So yes, I have an idea or two about what it takes.

indc says

Many of us lie when we are young to get our foot in. There is nothing wrong in it.

Top Tier School does not include Rutgers, no matter how you stretch it.

In fact, getting a teaching post at HLS is so hard that even Harvard, Yale, or Columbia Law Review students have a tough time getting into the final rounds.

Can we have Jeannie Suk, instead of Liz Warren, since she's also a minority woman but didn't fudge her background to get a teaching gig at Harvard Law?

PhD, Oxford
JD, Harvard
BA, Yale

"Ridiculous straw man.
She never claimed she was native American.
She herself didn't know what percent of her ancestry was native Americans until the test."

Show White's cherry after spending a night at the Seven Dwarves' house!

Wait?! What happened to Snow White? No one ever told me this story.

Someone - quick, ask Project Veritas or Sasha Cohen (or anyone at all) to stalk Warren and sneak off with her restaurant plates or whatever dinner ware and test those for DNA.

Reality says

Warren committed fraud when checking that box and claimed her mother was discriminated against for being Native American.

This is a completely unfounded attack. You are grasping at straws. The fact that you would even try such an argument shows how out-of-touch with reality you are. You don't even realize how unpersuasive this argument is to anyone who isn't part of your extremist ideology.

Actually doik, it's you doesn't know reality. Sure, Liz's mom probably exaggerated stuff in terms of family lore, I mean c'mon, didn't everyone have someone in their family who embellished WWI or WWII stories for the sonic effects? Or perhaps, if you're from an even older world family, some massacre in Eastern E...

This is spot on

TwoScoopsOfSpaceForce says

What really should happen is no ethnicity questions should ever be asked by an employer, the government,

THIS. Don't care so much about the census though. I check the box for Native American and what's going to happen? Is an employer going to have me take a test to determine if I'm actually Native American? They do that, they'll get sued immediately.

And frankly, who gives a flying fuck if you're "Native American" in 2018.... 2018.... 2018 for christ's sake. Learn from your history, but move the fuck on. Stop feeling bad about what people did generations ago and then making those people feel important that had harm done to them. Life can suck. Deal with it.

Vote out the D's and we may have a chance for a color-blind society.

Liawatha Pocahantas-the great white fool! I mean she would probably be one of the chicks on mauray claimimng xyz is the baby daddy and when maury proves her wrong by the DNA test saying 99.99% accuracy he is not the father-she would be arguing DNA is wrong or run off crying like she is shocked!!

You guys are acting like you're in a cult. Has politics become a cult? This is not good for our country.

It didn't used to be this bad.

This forum should now be called RightWingCircleJerk.net. Or perhaps TrumpCuckCircleJerk.net.

Half the threads and comments are right wingers stroking themselves, and eachother.

This is immature Marcus. Take your adhoms somewhere else.

Perhaps if you tried to offer facts for your multiple trump is a liar assertions, youd maybe have an actual discussion and wouldnt feel your time spent here is "this bad".

Actually, it was worse, but mostly left sided with Iwog and Dan spamming the forum non-stop.

However, several of the previous Democrats (myself included), have been red pilled, and the forum has gone to the right.

The Iwog's and Dan's were butthurt immediately after the election and vanished.

It gets worse for Warren:

Pocahontas Descendant Calls on Warren to Apologize

"A descendant of Pocahontas, the 17th-century Powhatan princess, said Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) needs to apologize for claiming to be Native America for political gain.

Appearing on “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Debbie White Dove Porreco said she was glad the Massachusetts Democrat finally took the DNA test, which she urged her to do back in May.

"It did prove that she wasn't the Cherokee Indian that she was claiming to be for so long," Porreco said on the program Tuesday. "I think she's guilty of claiming she's an American Indian but has no proof -- and then [is] using it for applications for college and for political reasons."

"She needs to... apologize to everybody for what she has done," Porreco said."

Are you sure you politics have changed? You have modified ideas on issues like ecology, rights and freedoms, economics and the like? Or have you watched your fellow Democrats support Antifa tactics, obviously false claims against Kavanah, and defending the undefensible Warren as a Cherokee claims.

This, and the suppression of free speech by the left.

Whites - 0.2% Native American ancestry.
Latinos - 18% Native American ancestry (20% of population)
Blacks - 0.8% Native American ancestry

Thanks @dr6B that's a really interesting article.

Dan was on occasions extremely interesting, and also consistent in what he said. I enjoyed reading him.

Key word was "occasionally."

I started ignoring him when he tried to argue that men could legitimately be women, and women could be men. For some reason, basic biology didn't matter to him.

Patrick says

Thanks. I am lately reading this type of articles to make sense of my DNA analysis results.My family lore (with ancestors on both fathers' and mothers side supposedly coming from various places in Europe), just as Ms. Warren's, turns out to be completely wrong.

Iwog and Dan were very anti-left and attacked SJW and anti-fa all the time. You are remembering very incorrectly.

joshuatrio says

Both left because of the trolls and the right-wing politics on patrick.net. Dan even advocated Trump over Clinton. And both left well after Trump was elected. You are remembering very incorrectly.

patrick.net has lost a lot of users over the past five years. You don't see any of the moderates here anymore. So Marcus does have a point when he says patrick.net used to be different. There used to be a wide range of opinions and that is no longer the case. Like them or not, both Iwog and Dan always backed up their statements with evidence and tried to make rational arguments, and they were very consistent in their views. Most importantly their views were not consistently left or right. They were completely against identity politics and both were attacked by left-leaning users on patrick.net. Calling them left-leaning doesn't work. Iwog spent months filming and attacking anti-fa and he was one of the producers of the Red Pill documentary which attacked feminists. They were politically incorrect.

Personally, I wish a lot of the old users would come back and patrick.net had a politically diverse set of users that reflected America at large. It was a more interesting site when different sides were represented and did talk to each other. Unfortunately, over time everything degraded to a shit throwing contest and lots of people started leaving. The site is poorer for this.

TwoScoopsOfSpaceForce says

Unfortunately, that has palpable real world consequences, like being bragged about as a minority hire. Nor was Harvard the only time Warren used "Native American" in an application process. It was beneficial to both her and the employer.

I would call this a problem with Harvard, not Warren. Any time I hear a company bragging about minority hires or being woman-old, I hear racism and sexism. Everything should be a meritocracy. The problem is with Affirmative Action, not with anyone checking off checkboxes about ethnic backgrounds.

Potential Students/Employees checking off of the "Wrong" boxes is related to the desire of Academia and Corporations to have a "diverse" workforce.
