For over a quarter of a century, Elizabeth Warren has described herself as a Native American. When recently asked to provide evidence of her ancestry, she pointed to an unsubstantiated claim on an 1894 Oklahoma Territory marriage license application by her great-great grand uncle William J. Crawford that his mother, O.C. Sarah Smith Crawford, Ms. Warren's great-great-great grandmother, was a Cherokee.
After researching her story, it is obvious that her "family lore" is just fiction.
As I pointed out in my article here on Sunday, no evidence supports this claim. O.C. Sarah Smith Crawford had no Cherokee heritage, was listed as "white" in the Census of 1860, and was most likely half Swedish and half English, Scottish, or German, or some combination thereof. (Note, the actual 1894 marriage license makes no claim of Cherokee ancestry.)
But the most stunning discovery about the life of O.C. Sarah Smith Crawford is that her husband, Ms. Warren's great-great-great grandfather, was apparently a member of the Tennessee Militia who rounded up Cherokees from their family homes in the Southeastern United States and herded them into government-built stockades in what was then called Ross’s Landing (now Chattanooga), Tennessee—the point of origin for the horrific Trail of Tears, which began in January, 1837.
Shame no longer exists...no matter what one lies about, it is all just a game and we move on to the next lie to see if that sticks.
Does Ms. Warren feel shame?
Reminds me o’me ole pally, Joey O’Fallon from me Navy days.
Whenever he got his Irish up around a fair lass, he’d ask her. .
“darlin heart o mine, ya got any Irish in ya? - would ya like t’have some?”
Maybe she can go on a road show with Ward Churchill, and then they could write a book, titled “Red Like Me, The Journey of Two White People Trying To Exploit Native Americans For Their Academic Career Goals”.
No worse than O’Bama assertin’ some Irish somewhere!!!!
Typical libs: Full of self hatred for their own race, they claim falsely to be of another race, or at least as much of another race as they can get away with.
Anyway, more proof libs loath themselves. Can’t blame them. I loath them too.
Oh good. I had crunched her ancestry and was leaning in that direction but got caught up in other things before I could finalize my sources. Funny thing is I was going to send it to Breitbart’s people too.
“...they claim falsely to be of another race...”
For them, it’s the ultimate moral highground. In the liberal universe, indians are the supremely oppressed people.

How many years was Prohibition in effect vs Affirmative Action. Our forbears were much smarter than us. Why can’t failed policy be recognized and changed anymore?
Oh, that's gotta hurt.
"He herded himself," said Warren High Cheekbones. "He was torn between his Militia leadership and being rounded up. He even pulled a gun on himself."
#25: Obama must have been referring to the “Black Irish”.
He told Putin that he had Russian blood in his lineage. He said he was from a “Black Russian”.
After the November election, his lineage is going to include “Black and Blue”.
“Princess Spreadin Bull”
maybe “squaw Liz-a-lot”
Hey Liz, why did you drop the act once you got to Hardy Har Harvard?
